| Abstract | Developing Asian economies have the fastest-growing energy demand in the world. This paper provides a brief review of projections of increased energy demand in the region, the expected fuel mix, and the importance of energy security as a driver of future energy policy. It describes the success of demand-side management (DSM) programs in the US and California in particular. Finally, it presents results of DSM programs in Thailand after 29 years of implementation and concludes that there is ample evidence to support the promotion of energy efficiency as the "first fuel" option for Asian energy planners and policymakers. |
