Sustainable Energy Planning
Energy planning is the process of developing long-range policies to help guide the future of regional and national energy strategies. Sustainable energy planning is the approach of planning for the energy sector in a proper, careful, safe and responsible way.
We fully understand and support energy development as a mean to grow economies and provide social advancement. However, traditional models of energy development are based on more energy supply and consumption. In many places around the world these models have led to environmental degradation and are no longer viable. Our approach is to use energy planning tools and focus on energy solutions that fully integrate environmental considerations with demand-side management through energy efficiency, conservation strategies, renewable resources and low or less carbon intensive technologies.
