Sustainable energy planning is a pre-requisite for sustainable development.In the meantime, attitudes and technology of industrialized nations towards energy planning are not compatible with the goal of environmental sustainability. Strategies used in energy planning in many countries are traditional and do not consider much about the technological challenges that are to be addressed in energy planning at the local, national and global scales and focus only on how to optimize economic output. This paper examines how to address environmental constraints in energy planning process and to suggest suitable solutions for energy planning in order to obtain a high welfare for the global society.
