quality and economic growth.
On the other hand, Kodongo & Ojah (2016) do not find impacts of
infrastructure quality on economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa. Similar findings are also
reported by Chakamera and Alagidede (2018) for the same region. It shows that although the
combined effects of infrastructure stock and their quality are larger than the stock effects alone in
countries with
high infrastructure quality, the opposite was the case in countries with poorer
infrastructure quality. Some studies use the CGE model to analyze the impacts of infrastructure
quality on economic output (GDP). For example, using a CGE model
of Nepal, Timilsina et al.
(2018) find that electricity load shedding, which represents the poor quality of electricity supply,
would have caused 7% GDP loss during the 2008-2016 period.
