Expanding access to modern energy services to power economic and social development is the cornerstone of USAID’s energy-related mission.

To achieve this, the Agency develops and implements programs that seek to:

• Support the construction and rehabilitation of infrastructure to restore basic services in post conflict and conflict-prone states.

• Improve enabling environments, including policy, legal, regulatory, and commercial reforms, to boost energy sector performance and increase private sector participation and investment.

• Enhance operational and commercial performance of public and private sector institutions, including utilities.

• Promote increased energy trade and regional power pools.

• Help countries reduce their overall carbon emissions and address climate change through clean energy and energy efficiency projects.
