The book suggests alternative strategies for achieving cost-recovery in the electricity sector in a socially and politically acceptable manner, providing lessons that are equally relevant for other utilities and regions.Electric utilitiesAsia, CentralElectric utilitiesEuropeHouseholdsEnergy consumptionCase studiesElectronic books.Electric utilitiesElectric utilitiesHouseholdsEnergy consumption333.793/2094Lampietti Julian A868207Banerjee Sudeshna Ghosh1973-918529Branczik Amelia1978-977754Energy Sector Management Assistance Programme.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451036703321People and power2227477UNINA
