Shortly after his inauguration, President Medvedev made several public statements identifying Russia s inefficient use of energy, and the associated economic and ecological consequences, as one of the most pressing problems facing the nation. He has called for an action plan to halve Russia s energy intensity by 2020. The goal of this report is to make a significant contribution toward developing such a plan.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOAIRAIR POLLUTIONAIR QUALITYAIR QUALITY STANDARDSANNUAL COSTSANNUAL EMISSIONSAPPROACHATMOSPHEREAVAILABILITYAVERAGE TEMPERATUREBARREL OF OILBARRIERS TO ENERGY EFFICIENCYCALCULATIONCAPACITY UTILIZATIONCARBONCARBON CREDITSCARBON DIOXIDECARBON EMISSIONSCEMENTCH4CHEMICALSCLIMATECLIMATE CHANGECLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATIONCLIMATE POLICYCLIMATESCOCO2COALCOAL GENERATIONCOAL TECHNOLOGIESCOMBUSTIONCONSUMER BEHAVIORCRUDE OILCRUDE PRODUCTIONDEMAND FOR PETROLEUM PRODUCTSDEMAND-SIDE MANAGEMENTDISTRIBUTION LOSSESDOMESTIC GASDOMESTIC SUPPLYDOMESTIC USEDROUGHTDRY NATURAL GASEFFICIENCY POTENTIALELECTRIC POWERELECTRIC UTILITIESELECTRICAL GENERATIONELECTRICAL GENERATION CAPACITYELECTRICITYELECTRICITY CAPACITYELECTRICITY COMPANYELECTRICITY CONSUMPTIONELECTRICITY DEMANDELECTRICITY GENERATIONELECTRICITY INDUSTRYELECTRICITY PRODUCTIONELECTRICITY SECTORELECTRICITY SUPPLYELECTRICITY TARIFFSEMISSIONSEMISSIONS REDUCTIONEMPLOYMENTEND-USEENERGY BALANCEENERGY CONSUMERSENERGY CONSUMPTIONENERGY COST SAVINGSENERGY COSTSENERGY DEMANDENERGY EFFICIENCYENERGY EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTSENERGY EFFICIENCY INVESTMENTSENERGY EFFICIENCY STANDARDSENERGY EXPENDITUREENERGY INDUSTRYENERGY INTENSIVEENERGY LOSSENERGY MANAGEMENTENERGY MARKETSENERGY MIXENERGY NEEDSENERGY OUTLOOKENERGY POLICYENERGY PRICEENERGY PRICESENERGY RESOURCESENERGY SAVINGSENERGY SECURITYENERGY SERVICEENERGY SERVICE COMPANYENERGY STRATEGYENERGY SUPPLYENERGY SYSTEMSENERGY USEENVIRONMENTAL COSTSENVIRONMENTAL ISSUESENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCYEVAPORATIONFERROUS METALSFINANCIAL INCENTIVESFINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSFINANCIAL MARKETSFLOODSFORESTFOREST FIRESFORESTRYFORESTSFOSSILFOSSIL FUELFOSSIL FUEL COMBUSTIONFREEZEFROSTFUELFUEL EFFICIENCYFUEL PRODUCTIONFUELSGAS CONSUMPTIONGAS DELIVERIESGAS FIELDSGAS FLARINGGAS FLARING REDUCTIONGAS MARKETGAS PIPELINESGAS PRICEGAS PRICESGAS SECTORGAS SUPPLYGENERATING CAPACITYGHGGLOBAL ENVIRONMENTGLOBAL ENVIRONMENT FACILITYGLOBAL WARMINGGREENHOUSEGREENHOUSE GASGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONSGREENHOUSE GASESGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTHEALTH RISKSHEATHEAT GENERATIONHEAT SUPPLYHEATING ENERGYHEAVY INDUSTRYHIGH ENERGY INTENSITYHOUSEHOLD ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTIONHUMAN HEALTHHYDROMETEOROLOGYIMPROVEMENTS IN ENERGY EFFICIENCYIMPROVING ENERGY EFFICIENCYINCOMEINDUSTRIAL BOILERSINDUSTRIAL POLLUTIONINTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCYINVESTMENT IN ENERGY EFFICIENCYINVESTMENTS IN ENERGYIRONKILOWATT-HOURKILOWATT-HOUR OF ELECTRICITYKILOWATT-HOURSLONG-TERM FINANCINGMETHANEMORTALITY RATESNATIONAL EMISSIONSNATURAL GASNATURAL GAS CONSUMPTIONNATURAL GAS IMPORTSNATURAL GAS PRODUCTIONNATURAL GAS USENATURAL RESOURCESNET OILNEW PLANTSNITROGENNITROGEN COMPOUNDSNOXOILOIL COMPANYOIL EQUIVALENTOIL EQUIVALENTSOIL EXPORTERSOIL EXPORTSOIL IMPORTSOIL OUTPUTOIL PRODUCTIONOIL REFINERIESOIL WELLSPARTICULATEPARTICULATE EMISSIONSPENALTIESPER CAPITA INCOMEPERFORMANCE STANDARDPETROCHEMICALSPETROLEUMPETROLEUM GASPIPELINEPM10POLLUTANTSPOLLUTIONPOWERPOWER GENERATIONPOWER PLANTPOWER SECTORPOWER STATIONPOWER STATIONSPPPRECIPITATIONPRIMARY ENERGYPRIMARY ENERGY CONSUMPTIONRAW MATERIALSREBATESREDUCING ENERGY CONSUMPTIONREDUCTION IN CARBONREFINED PETROLEUM PRODUCTSRESIDENTIAL BUILDINGSRESIDENTIAL CONSUMERSRESIDENTIAL ENERGYRESIDENTIAL HOUSINGROAD TRANSPORTSO2SOLID FUELSSOXSPACE HEATINGSULFURSUPPLY SIDESUSTAINABLE ENERGYVALUE OF ENERGYVEHICLESWATER HEATINGWORLD ENERGYWORLD ENERGY OUTLOOK10.1596/20675
