Renewable energy utilization is recognized as a way to increase energy access for rural and remote areas. However, such efforts are not only depending on the economic and technological aspects but also the support of the society and respective stakeholders. Some studies have focused on managing stakeholder in a wide scope of energy projects but on the other hand, studies in relation to rural electrification project schemes seems to be lacking. To help understand the wider scope of rural electrification, this paper analyses a range of past and current research development on this domain and places the literature on the framework of stakeholder management. The review indicates that stakeholder management in relation to rural electrification program is identified under three major themes such as stakeholder influence, stakeholder identification and classification, and stakeholder involvement.
