Abstract: Studies provided in the Energy and Environmental Policy Centre on Central and Eastern European countries during the year 1998 have analysed methodical changes on evaluation of economy and energy conservation problems in transition conditions. In this article, problems are discussed which justify the view that the existing situations in Central and Eastern Europe can be noted as a post transition situation.

Keywords: East-West cooperation; transition period; energy conservation policy.
