2. Literature overview
In high-income countries, increased use of electricity enables the “new digital economy,” as well as improves individuals' productivity and quality of life (Ebohon, 1996; Rosenberg, 1998). Very little has been written, however about increased access to electricity in developing countries and its parallel benefits in terms of information and communication technologies' (ICT) adoption. This issue should be pertinent to a variety of bodies of literature. For example, an entire body of literature has focused on economic, social, and quality of life differences—often called the digital divide—that exist between groups of people due to differing levels of access to, use of, or knowledge of, (ICT)—(for overviews, discussions, and/or critiques of this literature see DiMaggio, Hargittai, Celeste, and Shafer (2001), Howard (2007), Norris (2001), Vehovar, Sicherl, Husing, and Dolnicar (2006), and Warschauer (2004)). Much of the debate in this literature centers around a haves vs. have-nots dichotomy and a persistent focus on hardware provision rather than on the creation of the entire ICT ecosystem necessary for meaningful quality of life improvements to accrue (Di Maggio & Hargittai, 2001; Warschauer, 2002). Rather than engaging in this debate, this article seeks to draw attention to a crucial pre-requisite for all ICT use, the provision of energy. A small but growing group of scholars, in the ICT for development field, acknowledges the importance of electricity in ICT4D (Heeks, 2008; Unwin, 2009). Heeks (2008) calls for innovation to address the scarcity of electricity in poor, rural areas. Still, such an assertion of electricity's importance in this body of literature generally merits no more than a mention. In fact, in his seminal book on the subject, simply titled ICT4D, Tim Unwin boldly asserts, “Without electricity there can be no ICT4D” (2009:99). Yet the book's entire discussion of energy and electricity vis-à-vis ICT4D takes place on one page, within a 386-page book. We make this point not as a reproof toward Unwin's work in any way—quite the opposite. This article is in complete agreement with Unwin's bold assertion, and it attempts to answer Heeks' call for more innovative work in this area.
