| To decrease the emissions of
anthropogenic greenhouse gases, actions were made as part
of the Convention on Climate Change to increase the efficiency of
use of renewable and environmentally friendly energy resources.
The resource structure for energy in 1999 was 67% nonrenewable
resources, 23% renewable (wood) resources, and 10% hydroelectrical
energy (including import of electrical energy).
Local fuel is used mainly in small boiler houses. It is
expected that wood fuel will provide 25-30% of energy production
in the future. The main users of wood fuel are homes ~60%, heat
production enterprises ~25%, and industry (mostly wood processing
enterprises) and other users ~15%.
