Definition: the DAC defines aid to Energy generation and supply as including energy sector policy, planning and programmes, and aid to power generation of both renewable and non-renewable sources.
In 2007-08, total annual average aid commitments to energy amounted to almost USD 7 billion. Among DAC members, the largest donors in 2007-08 were Japan and the United States (on average USD 1.4 billion each), Germany (USD 844 million) and Spain (USD 261 million). Since the mid-1980’s and up to the early 2000s, aid to energy has fallen by half. It has risen again during the last decade, and is now close to its mid-1980’s peak in real terms. Over the period 2003-08, aid flows to energy primarily targeted Asia (61%), followed by Africa (26%). Lower middle income countries received the bulk of aid to energy (56%), and low income countries a further 38%.
