Over the past decade almost all developing countries have
established energy planning activities in response to the grave
problems that have arisen as a result of the drastic increase in
energy prices, of the burden of energy related investment debt
service, and of the problems of deforestation. Although the insti
tutional and organizational responses are quite varied, it is
largely engineers and economists who have been called upon to
provide the necessary analytical capability to support policy
decisions in the energy area. However, as evidenced by the recent
participants in the Energy Management Training Program (EMTP), many
of the analytical techniques now regarded as appropriate go beyond
the usual background of those who are now assigned to such tasks.
Indeed, this monograph is based on the material presented in the
first *part of the course, whose purpose is to bring the often
diverse group to some common ground. Some of the material, such as
Chapter 4 on the basics of energy pricing, is intended primarily
for engineers. Other sections, such as Chapter 2 on energy
balances, is primarily a vehicle for a discussion of the problems
of units and differences in approach by different international
bodies. The intent, then, is to provide in a single work a primer
on a large number of different analytical tools.
