Gender, Energy Expenditure and Household Cooking Fuel Choice in Nigeria
研究了女性在家庭内部的议价能力如何影响家庭烹饪燃料的选择，以及决定使用某种燃料后的能源支出，发现收入和教育是关键因素，能源转型政策需考虑性别维度。
This paper investigates the impact of women’s intra-household bargaining power on household cooking fuel choice. It further analyzes the determinants of household energy spending after the decision to use a given fuel has been made. The results reinforce the important role women play in the household cooking fuel choice and energy transition from traditional to modern fuel. In addition, income and education are found to be crucial factors that influence both household cooking fuel choice and energy expenditure. These findings imply that energy transition policies need to consider gender dimension and women’s intra-household bargaining power.
