The National Energy Policy has three principal objectives that guide future energy sector developments based on supply, utilization and the environment.

• For supply, the main aim is to extend the life of domestic resources and diversify away from oil to promote other energy forms
• Utilization depends heavily on the industry and consumers to inegrate energy efficiency programmes and develop demand-side initiatives to curb consumption
• Energy and the environment are linked at every level, thus the requirement for mandatory assessment to address negative impacts.
