Other Household Survey
The World Bank, with the support of the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP), has launched the Global Survey on Energy Access, which relies on the Multi-Tier Framework (MTF) approach. The first phase is being carried out in 17 countries across Latin America, Africa, and Asia. The survey's objective is to provide more nuanced data on energy access, including access to electricity and cooking solutions. The MTF approach goes beyond the traditional binary measurement of energy access-for example, "having or not having" a connection to electricity, and "using or not using" clean fuels in cooking - to capture the multidimensional nature of energy access and the vast range of technologies and sources that can provide energy access, while accounting for the large differences in user experiences. The MTF survey provides detailed household energy data for governments, development partners, the private sector, non-governmental organizations, investors, and service providers.

The Global Survey on Energy Access using the Multi-Tier Framework approach in Sao Tome and Principe (2018) has as its primary objectives:
- To measure household access to electricity based on the following seven attributes: capacity, availability, reliability, quality, affordability, formality, and health and safety.
- To measure household access to modern energy cooking solutions based on the following six attributes: cooking exposure, cookstove efficiency, convenience, affordability, health and safety of primary cookstove, and fuel availability.
- To provide detailed household energy data, including data on all energy sources each household uses with details on each MTF attribute; energy-related spending; energy use; user preferences; willingness to pay for grid, off-grid, and cooking solutions; and the satisfaction of customers with their primary energy source, for governments, development partners, the private sector, non-governmental organizations, investors, and service providers.
- To provide disaggregated data by urban or rural location, by wealth quintile, and by the gender of the household head.

Sampling
The primary objective of the sample design for the Global Survey on Energy Access based on the Multi-Tier Framework approach conducted in Sao Tome and Principe (2018) was to achieve nationally and regionally representative samples. The household survey sample selection was based on a stratified household sampling by urban/rural strata and connected/not connected to the national electric grid. The selection of households was done through a systematic method. Households were ordered by urban/rural, grid-connected/non-grid-connected and for their geographic coordinates (from North to South). The sampling frame used for this stratified random sampling was the national listing of permanent residences, obtained from the national listing of all buildings in the country conducted before data collection. This listing was based on the existing information from the National Institute of Statistics (INE-STP) Geographic Operational Base (BOG), which was built during the last census.
The design for sampling permanently occupied households was based on a stratified random sampling, composed of 16 strata:
- 4 national regions: North-West, Centre-West, Centre-East, and Regiao Autonoma do Principe
- 2 environments: Urban/rural
- 2 grid connection statuses: connected/not connected to the national grid.
To maintain a 1:1 ratio of electrified to non-electrified households for the tier analysis and equal allocation between urban and rural areas, this would result in 150 households per strata (total of 2400 households).
The goal of the sampling strategy for the MTF survey was 150 households per strata. However, it was not possible to assure such dimension for the urban-not connected to the grid criteria in the Principe region where only 65 households of this strata were listed. To compensate, 85 households were added to the urban-not connected to the grid strata within the other three regions. The final sample size was 2,396 households.
