Electricity access

This layer represents the predicted likelihood that a given settlement is electrified, with values ranging from 0 (no electricity) to 1 (fully electrified). The data are derived from the High Resolution Electricity Access (HREA) dataset, which combines satellite observations of night-time lights with population settlement layers to estimate electricity access. Areas with low predicted electrification can help identify where decentralized renewable energy solutions may be most impactful in closing electricity access gaps.
