The GSMA Mobile for Development Utilities programme was launched in 2012, with the support of the UK Government, to promote the role of mobile technology in increasing and improving access to basic utility services in underserved communities. This annual report shares our progress over the last 18 months and highlights key insights and trends in the mobile-enabled utility space. The evidence is based on our engagement with the mobile industry, utility service providers and our Innovation Fund grant projects, which are supported by both the UK Government and Scaling Off-Grid Energy. This report demonstrates the important role of mobile in improving the delivery of essential services to the underserved, and showcases the progressively viable business models being implemented.
