Energy assistance over the past two decades has had a disappointing record. Many projects have failed completely, and the majority of programmes to promote renewable energy sources have had a little impact. This paper examines the assumptions and attitudes which under - pinned the energy assistance policies widely followed by the international donor community during the 1970s an 1980s and tries to explain why they have had so little success.
