There is now widespread agreement on the need for correct pricing as a neccesary, if not sufficient condition for securing optimal efficiency in road transport energy use. Despite this wide measure of agreement and the fact that road transport is invariably the largest single market for liquid fuels, empirical work on transport energy pricing has so far been largely confined to the industrial countries. This paper is a contribution to filling the gap by examining within a comparative framework the structure of transport energy pricing in both developing and industrial countries. The advantage of the comparative approach is that it throws light on characteristics of energy pricing which may be obscured if the analysis is limited to the pricing regimes of a group of broadly homogeneous countries.
