Fedorchenko Energy security and efficiency incentives come predominantly today from EU countries. Despite the political background of talks on energy, one should clearly understand that energy security and efficiency concepts have been strongly developed in consumer countriesЕ In Re Energy Efficient Ukraine: is there Light at the End of the Tunnel? Kateryna S. Rekiianova Much has been written and said about the need for Ukraine to re-structure its energy sector and implement best European practices in its energy policy.
