    To improve the energy efficiency in Ukraine few things have to be done:

    • Privatisation of the energy facilities in a way that they can compete for customers.
    • Development of the energy market. Only about 25% of energy (electricity and heat) delivered to final consumers is paid in cash. A lot of deliveries are paid with barter or not paid at all.
    • Deregulate energy prices. Although, energy price was rising over last years it is still seen to be too low. Incentive to invest in energy saving is needed.
    • There must be strong political commitment of the authorities at all levels to facilitate energy efficiency programs.
    In the year 2000 Ukraine consumed 122849.1 GWh of electricity, 60.367 m ton of coal, 8.4889 m ton of oil and 73.4 bln cubic meters of natural gas. This figures lead to 

    4894,53 PJ. Same year GDP stands for UAH 175 bln USD 28 bln. Thus, energy intensity stands at 175 MJ/USD. This figure is not reliable since it double count coal use (as coal and as electricity produced out of it). However, it demonstrates trend for decreasing energy productivity. Vector value for 2000 would be about 18.
