Rural electrification (RE) has proven to be one of A.I.D.'s most effective responses to Congressional mandates to serve the poor and do so through cooperatives when possible. This report overviews the National Rural Electric Cooperative Associations (NRECA) 20-year experience in providing developing countries with A.I.D.-financed technical assistance and training; examines NRECA-A.I.D. relationships; provides examples of NRECA's performance in 17 countries; briefly describes non-A.I.D. NRECA projects; and identifies opportunities for NRECA and A.I.D. to jointly undertake a broader range of energy-related activities in the future.
