Access to modern energy has an important role in human well-being and to a country's economic development. Also, access to modern energy is closely related with access to clean water, safe sanitation and health facilities, schools and other public services (OECD/IEA, 2015). Lack of electricity, heating and cooking systems and clean water keep the individuals in poverty and social exclusion. Lack of modern sanitation facilities is related with low access on labor market for people from disadvantaged groups, being difficult to go on an interview or job if you can't afford to keep your body hygiene. Also, access to education is another aspect that is influenced by access to electricity and sanitation facilities. Facing lack of access to electricity, heating systems and clean water, individuals connect illegally to these systems and they are part of the free rider problem
Keywords: access to energy, clean water, poverty, social exclusion, free rider problem
