The complexities of energy systems and (lie policy issues that emerge arc intricate and wide-ranging, yet the need to undertake demand-side management (DSM) of energy resources for sustainability is especially crucial in developing economies. In this paper it is argued that systems simulation can provide the broad and policy oriented framework required for this purpose. Applications to Colombian energy policy issues at both the national and the regional level arc presented to indicate the range of issues which can be so integrated on this modelling platform.
