Is there a nation on Earth that doesn't have power all the time, and if so, how do they get by? I discovered from my research that certain developing nations do not have access to continuous energy, and that some nations rely solely on solar power for their electrical needs. Given the critical role that electricity plays in the development of society, why do the leaders of those developing nations either not prioritize solving their energy-related issues or seem content with the status quo?
  Using a personal solar panel to turn on a generator is the only way to survive.
 Do you believe that any nation in the globe is unable to obtain reliable energy, or is there something else?
You are right that many developing countries do not have access to reliable energy and in many cases are dependent on alternative energy sources such as solar energy.  Electricity is a fundamental element for the development of any country and society as it is very important for industry, education, health, communication, transportation and other basic services.  Some countries in Africa and South Asia are facing extreme problems due to lack of energy.  Although solar energy is an environmentally friendly energy source, its efficient use on a large scale requires financial investment, technical expertise and long-term planning.  While a viable solution for some countries, it is extremely difficult to implement as a complete energy supply in practice.
