In Summary


    THE STAR INFOGRAPHICS

    The majority of households (47%) reported that the absence of electricity connections in their area is the reason they are not connected to the main grid.

    This indicates a significant gap in the infrastructure and distribution of the main grid electricity network.

    Approximately one-third of the households cited financial constraints as the main barrier to obtaining a connection, suggesting that the initial costs associated with setting up a connection are prohibitively high for many households.
