Often, climate policy is led by environment ministries, energy planning is led by energy ministries, national planning is led by planning ministries, and country finances are managed by finance ministries. However, it is important that these various agencies work together to address the multi-faceted and economy-wide nature of energy and environment issues. Collaboration will allow finance and planning personnel to better understand how energy, environment, and climate change can be addressed in national and sub-national planning processes and through fiscal (i.e. budgetary) and investment decision-making (UNEP, 2008). In Nepal, for example, decentralizing the delivery of energy services in rural areas dramatically increased efficiency and created local empowerment to plan, implement and monitor local energy programmes. This required dedicated support to build capacity of local organisations involved in the supply chain of energy service delivery (United Nations, 2007).
