Rethinking Power Sector Reform in the Developing World
A new paradigm for power sector reform emerged during the 1990s, under the influence of the Washington Consensus, and began to spread across the developing world. This approach advocated restructuring of national power utilities to create scope for competition, while delegating responsibilities to the private sector under a clear regulatory framework. After 25 years, few developing countries have managed to adopt the model in its entirety, while many others encountered political and economic challenges along the way. This book provides a comprehensive evaluation of developing country power sector reform, sifting the evidence of whether reforms have contributed to improved sector outcomes. It also examines to what extent the reform paradigm remains relevant to the new social and environmental policy agenda of the twenty-first century, and is capable of adaptation to emerging technological disruption.

Durant les années 90, un nouveau modèle de réforme du secteur de l’électricité est apparu qui soulignait l’importance de la restructuration des compagnies d’électricité, la constitution d’agences de régulation, la participation du secteur privé et l’établissement de marchés concurrentiels dans ce secteur. Vingt-cinq ans plus tard, seule une poignée de pays en développement a pleinement mis en oeuvre ces politiques issues du Consensus de Washington. À travers le monde en développement, des réformes ont été adoptées d’une manière plutôt sélective, ce qui a donné lieu à un modèle hybride caractérisé par la coexistence de structures reposant sur les lois du marché avec la persistance de la mainmise de l’État sur ce secteur. Le présent ouvrage a vocation à relancer et remettre à jour la réflexion sur les approches en matière de réforme du secteur de l’électricité dans les pays en développement. Cette démarche s’appuie largement sur des données historiques, couvrant à la fois l’évolution globale de la situation au niveau mondial et une analyse approfondie de 15 pays en développement. Elle se veut aussi visionnaire en ce qu’elle prend en considération l’incidence des nouveaux o b j e c t i f s d’action en matière environnementale et sociale ainsi que les technologies de rupture. 2019-08-30T16:22:52Z 2019-08-30T16:22:52Z 2020 Book Livre Libro http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/397521575434639149/Rethinking-Power-Sector-Reform-in-the-Developing-World 978-1-4648-1442-6 https://hdl.handle.net/10986/32335 English Sustainable Infrastructure; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf Washington, DC: World Bank |
