One in five people around the world, approximately 1.3 billion people,1 lack access to electricity. Prevailing estimates of the investment required to end this energy poverty rely on a flawed analysis2 from the International Energy Agency (IEA) which calls for unrealistic investment levels at inappropriate growth rates for inefficient energy delivery. We propose a new approach to end energy poverty that is founded on a clean energy model of delivery and reflects real world investment opportunities and needs. Taken in sum, we believe this approach{\textemdash}Clean Energy Services for All (CES4All){\textemdash}represents the cheapest, most effective means of delivering on energy access goals, and we urge public and private financiers to align investment priorities accordingly
