This paper examines energy availability and patterns of energy use in the context of a single village in rural Bangladesh. From a quantification of the average daily flows of energy use by the study population in the village, the analysis proceeds to an examination of patterns of land ownership and of the relations governing transactions between members of different classes in land, labor, and crop residues. The final section assesses the likely effects of energy and rural development projects on different classes in the village. (PSB)
