This study aims to identify the incidence and intensity of multidimensional energy poverty and its relationship with the health and education status of households in Bangladesh based on the latest three available household income and expenditure survey (HIES) waves of 2005, 2010, and 2016. In doing so, we first calculate the multidimensional energy poverty index (MEPI) for the context of Bangladesh, and the findings suggest that multidimensional energy poverty has been decreasing over the years––53.79%, 43.51%, and 36.33% during 2005, 2010, and 2016, respectively. Furthermore, the empirical results provide robust evidence that multidimensional energy poverty is negatively associated with the health and education status of households. Finally, this study calls for comprehensive policy response congenial with reliable energy accessibility, irrespective of location, and increased affordability of energy for all groups of users.

孟加拉国多维能源贫困及其对健康和教育的影响:基于家庭调查数据的多层次分析

本研究旨在根据 2005 年、2010 年和 2016 年最新的三个家庭收入和支出调查 (HIES) 浪潮,确定多维能源贫困的发生率和强度及其与孟加拉国家庭健康和教育状况的关系。为此,我们首先计算了孟加拉国背景下的多维能源贫困指数 (MEPI),结果表明,多维能源贫困多年来一直在下降——2005 年、2010 年分别下降了 53.79%、43.51% 和 36.33%,和 2016 年,分别。此外,实证结果提供了强有力的证据,表明多维能源贫困与家庭的健康和教育状况呈负相关。最后,本研究呼吁制定与可靠的能源可及性相适应的综合政策响应,
