‘Energy access ‘
tracing the contours of deprivation
Dr. Satish Balram Agnihotri
Part - I
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Firewood
Fuel used for Cooking
In 2011 the pattern remains nearly same but at a lower percentage : 54%
% of Hh Using Firewood in (Rural + Urban) sector
More than 64% households More than 54% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
Fuel used for Cooking
% of households Using Firewood in Urban sector
More than 27% households More than 18.5% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
Considerable urban households (>27 %) used firewood in
2001 with Kerala, Chhattisgarh and Odisha having >34% such
households.
The threshold reduced to 18.5% in 2011 with same pattern
persisting (with Bihar and West Bengal not showing
commensurate reduction)
How does the picture look at the district level ?
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Firewood in (Rural + Urban) sector
More than 65% households More than 61% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
We see a contiguous belt where more than 2/3rds
households used firewood for cooking. The region
remains more or less unchanged in 2011 but for the
cut off coming down to 61%.
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Firewood in Rural sector
More than 62% households More than 61% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
The same cutoff (65%) for rural area reveals a much
larger belt which becomes even larger if we lower
the cutoff to > 62% in 2001 and 61% in 2011.
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Firewood in Urban sector
More than 25% households More than 20% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
Even in the urban area more than 1/4th households
were using firewood for cooking in a large number of
districts in 2001. We see the same pattern in 2011
except that the percentage of households using
firewood has come down from 25% to about 20%.
What were the other households using ?
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Crop Residues
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Crop Residue in (Rural+Urban) sector
More than 7% households More than 7% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
In a compact belt > 7% household were using Crop
Residues which remains more or less unchanged in
2011.
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Crop Residue in Rural sector
More than 9% households More than 9% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
The same pattern recurs for rural area with the cut off
at > 9% both in 2001 and 2011.
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Crop Residue in Urban sector
More than 3% households More than 2% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
Very interestingly the spread in urban areas with a cut
off >3% is almost the same in 2001 and with a cutoff
of 2% in 2011
What about Cow Dung Cakes ?
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Cow dung Cake
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Cow Dung Cake in Rural sector
More than 10% households More than 7% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Cow Dung Cake in Urban sector
More than 2% households More than 2% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
A considerable portion of the Indo-Gangetic belt
showed 10% or more households using cow dung in
rural areas (>2% in urban).
In 2011 the percentage of these households has
come down to 7% (>2% in urban).
What about Kerosene?
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Kerosene
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Kerosene as in Urban Sector
More than 12% households More than 6% households
Census 2001 Census 2011
As per Census 2001, for Kerosene, a large urban
area had more than 12% households using it for
cooking while in a compact rural region only about
2% households used it.
Reduction in use of Kerosene for cooking is quite
clear in urban area with only >6% of household
using it. But the effect is not so visible in the rural
segment.
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Coal
Coal or its different forms e.g. lignite or charcoal
have not been very popular except in the eastern
coal belt with about 8% rural households using it
More than 8% households
Rural
Census 2001
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of LPG
But in use of LPG urban India shows a large swath
with more than 1/3rd households using LPG in 2001
a luxury not available to even 5% rural households.
More than 33% households More than 5% households
Urban Rural
What is remarkable is that the same region now
shows >55% urban households using LPG and in
rural area >11% households use LPG in 2011
More than 33% households More than 5% households
Urban Rural
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Bio Gas
The percentage of households
that use bio gas as a fuel is
miniscule, but we can find out
regions where Bio Gas has been
popular as per the Census 2001
data.
The map shows districts where
0.5% or more households in rural
areas use bio gas
Where does Bio Gas figure in this ?
More than 0.5% households
in Rural Sector
Very interestingly similar
percentage of urban
households reportedly use bio
gas
Where does Bio Gas figure in this ?
More than 0.5% households
in Urban Sector
What needs to be noted is that, the cow-dung cake using belt
in the Indo-Gangetic region does not report use of Bio Gas
plants on the scale of the southern region.
What does it represent ?
 Non availability of raw material ?
 Availability of LPG ? Or
 Is it plainly a governance issue ?
In 2011 there is an increase in the area for the same cut off
both in the rural and the urban segment.
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of Bio Gas as on Census 2011
More than 0.5% households More than 0.5% households
Rural Urban
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of ‘Any Other’
An interesting pattern
emerges in eastern India
where a compact area
covering West Bengal,
Northern Odisha, parts of
Jharkhand and Northern
Bihar show use of ‘any
other’ category of cooking
fuel! This pattern recurs in
2011.
This needs some further
scrutiny.
More than 1.5% households
Fuel used for Cooking
Use of ‘Any Other’ in (Rural+Urban) Sector
