Morgan Bazilian, executive director of the Payne Institute at the Colorado School of Mines, joins CSIS Energy Program Director Sarah Ladislaw to discuss energy access globally and some of the metrics used to measure access. Morgan and his colleagues recently released ‘Measuring “Reasonably Reliable” Access to Electricity Services,’ which provides an in-depth view of the gaps in global electricity access and how quality of access matters as much as quantity.
