  2. BSR STATES – A DIVERSITY OF ENERGY SYSTEMS • Iceland – geothermalenergydominates • Norway – almost 100% electricityfromlargehydropowerplants • Denmark – windandCHPs • Sweden – largehydro, nuclear, wind, biomass • Finland – gasCHPs, nuclear, largehydro, wind • Russia (BSR) – nuclear, gasCHPs • Estonia – oilshale • Latvia – largehydro, gasCHPs • Lithuania – gasCHPs, hydro, wind, biomass • Poland – coal, gasCHPs, wind • Germany (BSR) – gasCHPs, wind, biomass

  4. USE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY Share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption • This indicator measures how extensive is the use of renewable energy and, by implication, the degree to which renewable fuels have substituted fossil and/or nuclear fuels and therefore contributed to the decarbonisation of the EU economy. • It also show what is the progress on EU level towards Europe 2020 target for renewable energies of increasing the share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption to 20% by 2020.

  9. Baltic SCOPE – BALTICSCOPE.EU • The high and rapidly increasing demand for maritime space for different purposes, such as: • installations for the production of energy from renewable sources, • oil and gas exploration and exploitation, • maritime shipping and fishing activities, • ecosystem and biodiversity conservation, • the extraction of raw materials, • tourism, • aquaculture installations and underwater cultural heritage, • as well as the multiple pressures on coastal resources, • require an integrated planning and management approach.

  10. Baltic SCOPE • The European Commission has adopted the MSP Directive (23 July 2014) withthemain purpose to promote consistency and coherence of maritime spatial plans across marine regions. • This emphasizes ongoing cooperation across borders and mechanisms that facilitate the exchange of best practices.
