Lessons from an International Review of Successful and Unsuccessful Energy Subsidy Reforms
Many factors contribute to the success of energy subsidy reform. To better understand these factors, we review studies that drew lessons from past attempts at reform. We synthesize the lessons and then expound on them by reviewing our newly constructed database of over 3,000 news articles, capturing the context, details, and outcomes of over 400 energy subsidy reforms implemented worldwide from 1995 to 2022 across 44 countries.
