Description
Based mainly on economic modelling using panel data, and on the empirical evaluation of public policies, but also on a more descriptive approach resulting from a field placement, this thesis aims to understand, firstly, the role of access to energy in the socio-economic development of West African countries, through its role in improving school education. We then attempt to identify the main economic, social, institutional, technical and historical determinants of the energy situation in West African countries. Finally, we analyse the implementation and effectiveness of energy policies in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU)
Abstract (French)
Fondee principalement sur une modelisation econometrique sur donnees de panel, et sur l'evaluation empirique des politiques publiques, mais aussi sur une approche plus descriptive issue d'un stage de terrain, cette these a pour objectif de comprendre, premierement le role de l'acces a l'energie dans l'essor socio-economique des pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest, a travers son role dans l'amelioration de l'instruction scolaire. Nous tentons, ensuite, d'identifier les principaux determinants economiques, sociaux, institutionnels, techniques et historiques de la situation energetique des pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest. Enfin, nous analysons la mise en place et l'efficacite des politiques energetiques dans l'espace UEMOA (Union economique et monetaire ouest-africaine)Additional details
