dc.description | This study explores demand for LPG within Khartoum, Sudan’s largest (and growing) urban conurbation. The specific aims of this case study of Khartoum are: (1) to explore the extent to which households and small enterprises in the Khartoum area are using woodfuel versus LPG (or other energy sources) to meet their energy needs, how this is changing, and the factors influencing their choices; (2) to begin to provide an overview of the woodfuel trade in the Khartoum area (e.g. how the trade is organized, the main sources of supply, the main consumers, prices, taxes etc), trading trends, and the potential displacement effects of greater use of LPG; and (3) to provide an initial assessment of the retail trade in LPG in the Khartoum area (e.g. how the retail distribution of LPG is organized, the main consumers, prices, taxes etc.), recent trends and contributory factors. | en_US |
