Energy is central to achieving the interrelated economic, social and environmental aims of sustainable human development, and energy services play a crucial role in providing efficient access to energy in support of development. They also constitute the value added in the energy chain, from exploration to consumption. Developing countries are thus faced with the challenge of, on the one hand, achieving more reliable and efficient access to energy, and on the other hand, of obtaining a greater share of the energy "business". The pursuit of both goals requires access to knowledge, expertise, technology and managerial know-how. The Expert Meeting may wish to address the elements of an energy services sector strategy for developing countries, with the following objectives: (a) to ensure efficient access to energy by all segments of the population; (b) to strengthen their competitive position in the supply of energy services at the various stages of the energy chain; and (c) to negotiate commitments and additional provisions in the ongoing multilateral negotiations on trade in services supportive of these objectives
