Energy Watch

Most countries have developed formal energy policies. These can vary from a simple statement of objectives and priorities to a detailed action plan. Some countries actually state that their energy policies are sustainable energy strategies. Some of the strategies deal only with energy supply issues while others are integrated with energy demand and industrial development concerns. 

Regardless of a country's energy resource base, in order to contribute to ecodevelopment, energy systems should be consistent with environmental, economic, social and technological sustainability. 

To help achieve this goal, HELIO supports local experts and groups in:

• improving energy governance; and,

• monitoring energy developments.
