Many countries, particularly in Europe, have executive energy efficiency agencies at national, regional and local levels that are organized in different ways. For all of them, it is common that there are existing strategic needs in their countries for enhancement of conditions and measures for rational use of energy and fuels. Serbian Energy Efficiency Agency was established in 2002 within the reform of the energy sector in Serbia and its current status was defined in 2004 by the Energy Law. It contributes to the improvement of social responsibility towards energy in all structures of the state and society, by proposing energy efficiency incentives, promoting importance of energy efficiency, as well as by managing energy efficiency and renewable energy programs and projects.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper was to discussed how to developed the concept of Indonesia's energy security model with of Renewable Energy (RE) and Energy Efficiency (EE) programs. To did this, there were four important concepts must be completed: reconceptualized the Indonesia's energy security model; explained the energy security (ES) relationship with the details of the indicator; explained the potential of ET and EE in each sector; explained the role of local government in exploiting the potential of ET and EE.As an archipelago country  divided into several regions, in order to get accurate prediction, our result showed  that development Indonesian energy security models needed to be developed properly with more detailed indicators of RE and EE. To pursued the goal of national energy policy, the potential of RE and EE in each province should be utilized immediately, the role of local government was very important. The concept of detailed RE and EE indicators would create a contribution for local governments in realizing national energy security.ABSTRAKTujuan dari penulisan ini adalah untuk membahas bagaimana mengembangkan konsep model keamanan energi Indonesia dengan program Energi Terbarukan (ET) dan Efisiensi Energi (EE).Untuk melakukan ini, ada empat konsep penting yang harus diselesaikan: mengkonsepkan kembali model keamanan energi Indonesia; menjelaskan hubungan kemananan energi (ES) dengan perincian indikator; menjelaskan potensi ET dan EE di masing-masing sektor; menjelaskan peran pemerintah daerah dalam memanfaatkan potensi ET dan EE.Sebagai negara kepulauan yang terbagi menjadi beberapa provinsi,  analisis menunjukkan bahwa model keamanan energi Indonesia perlu dikembangkan dengan indikator ET dan EE yang lebih rinci. Untuk mengejar tujuan kebijakan energi nasional, potensi ET dan EE di setiap provinsi harus segera dimanfaatkan, maka peran pemerintah daerah sangat penting. Konsep model indikator ET dan EE yang terperinci ini akan merupakan kontribusi bagi pemerintah daerah dalam mewujudkan keamanan energi nasional.

The article analyzes the dynamics of consumption of primary energy and production of electrical energy in the world for 1973-2012 and the volume of renewable energy. It is shown that in the crisis year of 20 0 9 there was a significant reduction in primary energy consumption and production of electrical energy. At the same time, renewable energy has developed rapidly, well above the rate of the world economy growth. The development of renewable energy is one of the most effective ways out of the crisis, taking into account its production regime, energy, environmental, social and economic efficiency. The forecast for the development of renewable energy for the period up to 2020, compiled by the IEA, is analyzed. It is shown that its assessment rates are conservative; the authors justify higher rates of development of renewable energy.
