Abstract
WORLD Bank’s new energy strategy could leave developing countries in the dark. In a bid to address climate change concerns, the Washington-based global development powerhouse has decided not to fund new coal-fired power plants in developing countries. The policy shift, although in the pipeline for a while now, is still significant as the Bank had approved a $3.75 billion loan for the world’s seventh largest coal power plant in South Africa only two years ago.
