Research background: Energy policy is closely linked to economic development. Therefore, its optimization is an important issue especially in the contemporary European environmental conditions.  EU regulations enforce a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and the abandonment of non-renewable energy resources. Instead, they promote renewable energy sources. In this way, new legal and environmental circumstances are becoming the main reason for the transformation of energy balances, which is a real economic and technological challenge. This transformation requires a strategic and effective approach, especially in those countries which until now have used mainly hard coal in the energy sector. Purpose of the article: According to above justification, the main purpose of the article is to identify the strategies for the transformation of energy balances that were implemented in the years 1990–2017 by chosen European countries and Turkey. Methods: The study period covers the years 1990–2017, and the subject of the research at first applies to all European countries, and then to 7 countries selected due to their high share of bituminous coal in energy balance in the first year of the analysis, treated as the initial point of transformation (1990). As a result of this selection, 6 EU members and Turkey with the largest share of coal in energy production in the year 1990 are examined. Particularly, an analysis of the trends in their energy balances in the years 1990–2017 is conducted. The research uses data on non-renewable energy consumption and renewable energy resources and the total energy consumption. The research methodology includes: analysis of the structure and dynamics, evaluation of trends and comparative analysis and presentation of development strategies. At the end of the article, a comparative analysis is carried out, the economic consequences of identified changes are assessed, and recommendations are formulated aimed at optimizing the structure of the energy balance in the future. Findings & Value added: Generally, there are four theoretical and empirical patterns of transformation strategies of energy balances with dominant coal consumption: 1) using other non-renewable energy resources; 2) replacing non-renewable energy resources with renewable ones; 3) using nuclear energy instead of coal; 4) increasing coal consumption as available and efficient energy resource. It was found that the examined countries implement mainly the strategy in which the decreasing share of coal is made up for by an increasing share of gas. Additionally, we can observe an increase in the share of nuclear energy in France, the Czech Republic and the United Kingdom. In Spain and Germany, despite the use of nuclear power plants for the production of energy, the share of nuclear energy in the energy balances has systematically decreased in time. In all analyzed countries, we can also observe an increasing share of renewable sources in energy balances, however, this growth is very slow.

Energy Security of the state: Comparative analysis and Improving the Regulatory frameworks for energy, resource efficiency of buildings in Ukraine and in the EU. The article was the analysis and compare existing regulatory frameworks for energy and resource efficiency of various buildings in Ukraine and in the EU. The main assignment of the present research is studying the current situation and trends towards improvement of the Ukrainian regulatory framework concerning energy saving in the construction engineering sector. With the aim of ensuring energy security of the state determined approaches to effectively addressing the problem of high energy consumption. Efficient solution of the high energy resources consumption problem in the field of industrial and civil engineering is only possible with an integrated approach. It is necessary both to control heat losses by means of walling and to reduce energy consumption for conditioning buildings, ventilation air transporting, etc. To successfully solve the problem of high energy resources consumption, it is necessary to improve the total costs of producing electricity, heat/cold, to minimize losses on their way from the energy manufacturer to the consumer. The article presents: energy classification houses by European standards, proved the need to develop the existing regulations energy efficiency in Ukraine; the experience of European countries for energy certification in order to introduce in Ukraine; the structure of the legislative framework of Ukraine in the sphere of energy efficiency of buildings; implementing European practices energy conservation in Ukraine; development of recommendations on adaptation of Ukraine standards to EU; the formation of proposals for  deepening energy cooperation between Ukraine and the EU. Keywords: energy security, regulatory framework, energy and resource efficiency, buildings, energy performance certificates.

This chapter examines the long-term economic prospects of developing countries whose growth depends to a large extent on cash crop exports, mining, and oil extraction. It analyses the causes of the slow and unstable long-term growth of such countries, including those due to the fluctuating world prices, the macroeconomic effects of the Dutch Disease, the under-investment in human capital, and an adverse political economy that favours the continued dependence on natural resource rents. It then presents a simple Solow-type model of long-term growth for such economies, and historical evidence of how public policy can moderate or offset the problems linked to this kind of productive specialization.by means of investments in technical progress, productive diversification, and the creation of stabilization funds.

The article gives comparative analysis of basic reserves variation of China’s fundamental energy resources during 2002-2012, including coal, petroleum and natural gas. The results show that the growth of China’s fundamental energy resources basic reserves has entered a relatively stable period except coal. After analyzing the basic reserves variation, the change tendency can be obtained. Finally clarify the influencing factors which lead to the change, and put forward some relevant policy and recommendations.
