ENERGY POLICY DEVELOPMENTSEE & RE OPPORTUNITIES
U.S. Business Mission 2010June 15 – 17, 2010
Chisinau, Republic of Moldova
Energy Sector Overview RM highly dependent on energy imports 94% of the energy needs (fossil fuels and
electricity) are covered from imports
In absence of national fossils, promotion of EE and RE is key
Energy Sector Challenges Lack of own resources (natural gas, oil, coal); High energy intensity and poor energy efficiency; Low level of RE use (6%); Dominance of imported natural gas; Old equipment (about 60-70%) in the energy
transformation sector; Insufficient investments in the energy sector, etc.
Energy Consumption
The major consumers’ groups are the households, transport, industry and public services with 45%, 23,5%, 10% and 8,6% correspondingly.
