As a follow-up to a 1994 IEG report on rural electrification in Asia, this 2007 report calculates private and public rates of return from rural electrification projects funded by the World Bank in several regions. The appendices categorize the Bank's rural electrification projects, analyze uses of electricity and their impact on microenterprise, and summarize the literature survey. Black and white photographs are provided, but no index.
