CAUCASUS: IEA / INOGATE Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia Energy Policy Review publication launch event

Objective

The policy review process, carried out in two cycles in 2013 and 2014, has now been finalised and the International Energy Agency, with the support of the INOGATE Technical Secretariat, has produced a new compendium publication entitled IEA Energy Policy Review of countries in Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia. 

This publication is under the IEA’s flagship energy policy review publication series and it was launched, for EU stakeholders, at the European Commission in Brussels on 13 April 2015. Thereafter, regional presentations were taking place as follows:

• For stakeholders from Eastern European countries (Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus), the presentation held in Chisinau on 15 April 2015

Each of these events followed by a short press conference. For more information, see the agendas for these events below.  All documentation is uploaded for each event on the above links for each event.
