Energy sector transformation

The transition from centralised to market economies in eastern Europe has created many challenges to the energy sectors of the countries determined to close their soviet-designed nuclear power plants on safety grounds.

Since the establishment of the International Decommissioning Support Funds in 2001, energy sector assistance has been an integral part of the Funds' mandate. Grants from the IDSFs are typically combined with funds from other sources to finance pilot projects designed to demonstrate how savings can be made through energy improvements after the nuclear power plants have been closed down. Such projects include investments in renewables, environmental upgrades and other energy efficiency measures.
