Published by ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ Research Department, Jan 23, 2026

An increase of four points is observed over the decade. There are also disparities according to regions and countries on the continent, with sometimes very high or, on the contrary, very low rates of access to electricity or in the quality of that access.
