Given the prevailing issues of poverty and inequality in rural areas of developing countries, as well as their vulnerability to the effects of climate change, we focus on discussions regarding rural electrification policy in a case study of rural Kenya to ensure long-term social well-being. Four electrification projects are assessed using a sustainability framework in order to evaluate and compare their performance in the context of the promotion of socio-economic development. The assessment reveals that the private sector projects are the better performers, a result which encourages the relevant institutions to provide further support for their continued growth and development.
