Energy Policy, 2025, vol. 205, issue C

Abstract: Malaria remains a significant public health challenge in many sub-Saharan African countries, with more than 247 million people tested positive and about 600 thousand deaths every year. Its burden disproportionately affects vulnerable populations, with consequences for their health, labour productivity, and standards of living.
