Abstract :
This paper briefly discusses some important energy problems facing the third world countries and presents the current electric energy generation scenario in most of the developing countries with facts and figures in respect of India and Australia. It is hoped that, with systematic, advance planning, through measures like co-generation, energy management and energy conservation, the electric energy supply scenario of AD 2012 will be free of the perennial problems of power shortages, voltage fluctuations etc.
