Summary/Abstract: The main energetic source for the population both at present, and in the future, is represented by fossil fuel, to an extent of 85%. The oil and gas pipelines have caused the first dispute in the energetic field, between the EU and Russia, at the beginning of 2006. Thus, the European Union starts to elaborate a unified energetic policy in order to reduce its dependency on Russian resources. There are numerous energetic projects from both sides, and Romania is involved in two of them.
