1. Energy: The most important single factor which can act constraint on economic growth of a country is the availability of energy. There is a direct correlation between the degree of economic growth, the size of per capita income and per capita consumption of energy. Since energy is an essential input of all productive economic activity, the process of economic development inevitably demands increasing higher levels of energy consumption. There are broadly two sources of energy commercial energy & non-commercial energy. Following are the various commercial energy:- coal & lignite, Oil & gas, Hydro-electric resource, Uranium. & non-commercial energy are Fuelwood, Agricultural wastes, Animal dung.



2. Power: Electric power, which is one form of energy, is an essential ingredient of economic development and, it is required for commercial and non-commercial uses. Commercial uses of power refer to the use of electric power in industries, agriculture and transport. Non-commercial uses include electric power required for domestic lighting, cooking, use of mechanical gadgets like the refrigerators, air conditioners, etc. With the growth of population and with the increase in the use of modern gadgets in daily life, it is quite natural that the demand for electricity for domestic use should grow at a fast rate.



3. Transport: If agriculture and industry are regarded as the body and the bones of the economy, which help the circulation of men and materials. The transport system helps to broaden the market for goods and by doing so, it makes possible large-scale production through division of labour. It is also essential for the movement of raw materials, fuel, machinery etc., to the places of production. The more extensive and continuous the production in any branch of activity the greater will be the need for transport facilities. Transport development helps to open up remote regions and resources for production. Regions may have abundant agricultural, forest and mineral resources but they cannot be developed if they continue to be remote and inaccessible
