Energy Club: Perspective Strategies for Development of Alternative Energy Sources

"Strategies for alternative energy development in Belarus need a sound policy and not a 'miracle' energy source". This was the dominant theme at the second session of the Energy Club, which was held in Minsk on 11 March 2010. Experts from Belarus and the European Union discussed the latest trends in the development of alternative energy sources in the European Union and debated how the EU experience can be applied to enhance energy security and energy efficiency in Belarus. Professor Philip Peck from the Lund University (Sweden) presented a report on the institutional and public policy aspects of the development of alternative energy sources. The report focused on how restructuring of the energy sector, particularly the transition to decentralized combined heat and power generation, makes economies more flexible in utilizing the domestic energy resources such as agricultural waste and peat. The debate that followed featured presentations from entrepreneur with an interest in the development of alternative energy sources, researchers from the International Sakharov Environmental University, the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus and the Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radio-electronics.
