The First Energy Forum
Prague, 23-24 October, 2006
The old continent may ensure its energy security, yet it must put in enormous effort and bear great costs. There are three energy transmission systems operating in the region of the Baltic Sea and Central and Eastern Europe. However, their capacities for integration and cross-border transmission are limited. The EU opts for separation of transmission, distribution and production of electricity. Finally, diversification of directions and security of gas supplies constitute major priorities of energy policy of the importers.
This year's Energy Forum was devoted to these issues. Energy Forum subject constituted a part of agenda of the Economic Forum in Krynica, where discussions and meetings related to fuels and energy proved to be genuinely popular. To elaborate on the debates held in Krynica at greater length, the Institute organizes special conferences which are dedicated to individual subjects and attended by prominent decision-makers and experts. The First Energy Forum was organized in collaboration with Radio Free Europe and was held in Prague at the building of the radio.
