能源是一个国家经济发展的支柱。埃塞俄比亚拥有大量能源资源潜力，能源贫困对福祉、身体健康、农业自动化、教育系统、工业和繁荣能力的影响是宝贵的。居住在埃塞俄比亚的很大一部分人口没有电力供应。在生活在埃塞俄比亚的1.1亿多人中，46%的人只将电能用于日常活动，如准备食物和其他任务。在该国80%人口居住的农村地区，人们没有可持续的能源供应。农村电气化需要特殊的机制，通过开放电力基础设施的机会来提高人民的生活水平。当公民能够达到人类的生活水平时，国家的可持续发展就会实现。本文调查了埃塞俄比亚的能源贫困及其对人民生活水平的影响，如人力资源开发、个人健康和农业自动化，目的是提升该国个人的生活方式。
Energy is the backbone of the economic development of a country. Ethiopia has bulk energy resource potential, and the effect of energy poverty on well-being, physical health, agriculture automation, education system, industries, and ability to prosper is valuable. A large proportion of the population living in Ethiopia has no electricity access. Among more than 110 million people living in Ethiopia, 46% only use electric energy for day-to-day activities like food preparation and other tasks. In the rural area of the country, where 80% of the population lives, people have no sustainable energy supply. The rural electrification needs special mechanisms to enhance the living standards of the people by opening opportunities for electric power infrastructures. The sustainable development of the country will be achieved when citizens are enabled to live up to the standard of living as humans. This paper investigates energy poverty in Ethiopia and its impact on the living standards of the people, like human resource development, health of individuals, and automation of agriculture, for the purpose of upgrading individual's lifestyle in the country.
