ESPINOZA VASQUEZ, Lourdes  and  JIMENEZ POZO, Wilson. Equity in the Provision of Services in Bolivia: Electricity Dignity Rate. rlde [online]. 2012, n.17, pp.135-168. ISSN 2074-4706.

Rate Dignity in Bolivia, in force since 2006, aims to increase coverage of electricity consumption in lower income households in urban and rural. This paper makes an assessment of that rate in relation to the benefits given to the Bolivian population with special focus on targeting criteria and the estimation errors of exclusion and inclusion. The results suggest greater benefits in the application of this tariff measures are taken to improve the current funding sources and implement improved criteria for identifying beneficiaries of the tariff.

Keywords : Social Rate; Equity and Efficiency.
