Subsidizing connections to the poor
Source abstract
Abstract
India has distributed subsidized liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) connections to the poor at a hitherto unseen pace. However, it has been unclear whether this successfully supports a shift away from solid fuel. Research now shows that connection subsidy alone is not enough to promote sustained LPG consumption among rural poor households.
