Abstract

Ukraine holds a pivotal position geographically, historically and politically alongside Europe and Russia. It is experiencing first-hand how the remnants of communist policies on energy use influence current practices, and how inefficient energy use at the residential and industrial levels threatens economic growth and financial security. This article aims to address the challenge of energy insecurity, encouraging a pan-European attitude to practical policy formation and implementation. In outlining the issues, the challenges posed by the Russian and Eastern European psyche and the will of Western Europe, a case is presented for a meaningful project with the potential for the emerging democracies to play an essential role in ensuring the future energy stability of Europe.
