Summary: Analysis using data on household energy use from Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS) surveys can help policymakers to identify which households are affected by energy poverty and then design policies that will accelerate the household energy transition. This paper shows that LSMS can provide accurate data on household energy use, combined with other data on household wellbeing (including consumption, income, health, and education), to monitor the progress in the household energy transition from traditional biomass fuels to modern fuels and electricity and to evaluate the effect of government energy policies on living conditions. http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/805051468324549445/Energy-policies-and-multitopic-household-surveys-guidelines-for-questionnaire-design-in-living-standards-measurement-studies
