While the future course of these prices may prove difficult to predict, there has emerged from this experience a clear need for energy planning as a means of cushioning the impact of possible fluctuations. To accelerate the effort towards a comprehensive approach to energy policy formulation and energy planning, the Division of Natural Resources and Energy of the United Nations Department of Technical Co-operation for Development, in co-operation with the Government of Sweden and the Swedish International Development Authority (SIDA), held a Symposium on Energy Planning in Developing Countries at Saltsjobaden near Stockholm, Sweden, on 28 September-2 October 1981. |
