Energy for sustainable development : a policy agenda

In the ten years since Rio, the world has gained a more thorough understanding of the problems associated with energy use and of the actions that need to be taken. Some countries have made enlightened energy policies a priority and many of their experiences are reflected in these pages. This book is intended to share information about such experiences and to shed light on policy options that can support an equitable, safe, healthy and prosperous world using energy as an instrument for sustainable development.
