Poland participated in the Baltic Energy Efficiency Group (BEEG), one of four working groups established by the Energy Ministers of the Baltic Sea countries at their Stavanger Ministerial on 2 December 1998. The task of the group was to assess energy efficiency options and potentials with a focus on combined heat and power (CHP) and district heating (DH). The assessment included technologies, financing and legislation.
The Group's action programme embodied:
CHP-strategy;
Facility for financing small-scale energy efficiency projects, CHP and renewables;
Market Transformation Programme;
Flexible framework for improving the efficiency of collaborative projects and actions.
In order to reach this goal Energy Efficiency Development Forum (EEDF) was establiched; - "Baltic Sea Region Energy Efficiency Week" was scheduled to happen annualy.
Countries that participated in BEEG: Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Russia and Sweden. European Commission was represented by its the Directorate General for Transport and Energy BEEG ceased to exists in 2005.
