Countries of the UNECE region are among the richest and most developed in the world, however the degree of differentiation in the region is significant. Some of the countries can be characterized as highly developed energy markets, using efficient technologies and having universal sustained access to electricity and fuels. Others, nevertheless, still experience inefficiencies in production, transmission and distribution of energy, and a lack of investments into energy efficiency projects. One thing that countries of the region have in common is a very high level of energy consumption. About half of the global energy production is consumed in this region. Therefore, promotion and implementation of the energy efficiency policies in the UNECE region may not only improve individual country’s energy and environmental prospects, but also significantly contribute to a global sustainable energy future.
