Electricity access statistics used to track progress against the Sustainable Development Goal 7.1 set by the United Nations have significant uncertainties, which may bring into question the electrification status of at least 87.2 million people in sub-Saharan Africa. Consequently, we call for a re-evaluation of the definitions of electricity access used by international organizations and the methodologies applied to calculate them.

不一致的测量结果使撒哈拉以南非洲的电气化进展受到质疑


用于追踪联合国设定的可持续发展目标7.1进展情况的电力接入统计数据存在很大的不确定性，这可能会使撒哈拉以南非洲至少8720万人的电气化状况受到质疑。因此，我们呼吁重新评估国际组织使用的电力供应定义以及用于计算它们的方法。
