•Energy intensity differs depending on Energy intensity differs depending on world regions. It is three times higher in world regions. It is three times higher in CIS than in European countries. Levels in CIS than in European countries. Levels in OECD Asia and Latin America are about OECD Asia and Latin America are about 15% above those in Europe, while North 15% above those in Europe, while North America stands 40% higher, but remains America stands 40% higher, but remains below the world average. India is on a par below the world average. India is on a par with the world average, with energy with the world average, with energy intensity levels 60% higher than in intensity levels 60% higher than in Europe.Europe.

The high energy intensity in the CIS, the The high energy intensity in the CIS, the Middle East, China and other Asian Middle East, China and other Asian developing countries is mainly explained developing countries is mainly explained by the predominance of energy-intensive by the predominance of energy-intensive industries and low energy prices. industries and low energy prices.

Energy intensity of Ukraine (0.471 Energy intensity of Ukraine (0.471 koe/$2005p) approximately in 1,3 times koe/$2005p) approximately in 1,3 times exceeds the middle index of countries of exceeds the middle index of countries of CIS (0.359 koe/$2005p), and in 2,5 times CIS (0.359 koe/$2005p), and in 2,5 times exceeds the middle index of countries of exceeds the middle index of countries of world (0.192 koe/$2005p), on the state on world (0.192 koe/$2005p), on the state on a 2010 year.a 2010 year.
