本文记录了南非从20世纪80年代末至今的电气化计划。本文的主要目的是向读者概述1990年至2007年间使500多万户家庭用上了电的政策、制度、规划、融资和技术发展与创新。关键方面包括一段时期的政治变革和政策中断对方案的开始是至关重要的。国家政府以外的组织和个人在帮助制定新的电气化政策和战略方面发挥了关键作用。此外，该文件确定了技术发展对降低成本和实现该方案的社会目标的贡献。可以从南非方案所制订的体制和规划安排、发展适当的以成本为动力的技术革新和标准的重要性、承认电气化的社会功能及其资金来自财政（而不是通过交叉补贴）等方面吸取一些教训。(C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd版权所有。
This paper documents South Africa's electrification programme from the late 1980s to the present. The primary aim of the paper is to present the reader with an overview of the policy, institutional, planning, financing and technological developments and innovations that resulted in more than 5 million households receiving access to electricity between 1990 and 2007. Key aspects include the way in which a period of political change and policy disruption were essential to the programme's initiation. and the critical role played by organisations and individuals outside of national government in helping shape new electrification policies and strategies. In addition, the paper identifies the contribution of technology development in cost reduction and achieving the social aims of the programme. Several lessons may be drawn from the institutional and planning arrangements that the South African programme has developed, the significance of the development of appropriate cost-driven technical innovations and standards, and the acknowledgement of the social function of electrification and its funding from the fiscus (rather than through cross-subsidies).
