Abstract

Energy poverty is a significant issue in many developing countries, where a large portion of the population lacks access to modern and reliable energy services. In this context, the state plays an important role as a regulator, planner, and provider of energy services. This study examines the effect of state capacity on energy poverty in developing countries from 2000 to 2020. The findings, based on various estimation techniques, indicate that strengthening state capacity reduces energy poverty, with fiscal and legal capacity playing key roles. Additionally, state capacity helps improve several dimensions of energy poverty, including access to clean fuels, modern technologies, and electricity consumption, while its effect is also mediated through channels such as education and political stability. These findings underscore the need for a stable political and institutional framework to support effective and sustainable public action against energy poverty.
