Policies without Sovereignty: Palestinian Electricity under Occupation in Gaza

Volume 7|Issue 15| Feb 2024 |Articles

Abstract

This study sheds light on the electricity sector in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since 1967, with a focus on the Gaza Strip. It explores the determinants of public policies regulating this sector following the establishment of the Palestinian Authority in 1993. The study addresses the outcomes of these policies and their impact on the electricity sector under occupation, and the repercussions of liberalizing the sector, which began with the establishment of the Oslo Accords’ economic parameters and took root after 2008. The study proposes strengthening reliance on alternative energy sources for electricity production, and restructuring the electricity sector by centralizing production, distribution, and management through a national, public, and social corporation.
