Abstract: This paper considers the energy market of the (formerly) central planned economies in Eastern Europe (including the Soviet Union). More precisely, the analysis tries to relate the demand/supply for energy and fuels to the degree and the speed of the deregulation and the introduction of a market economy. Using a formal model, it will be shown that deregulation will lead to a substantial conservation such that this region can remain a net energy exporter over the next five years. On the other hand, continuation of the traditional allocation rules would either lead to energy imports, or more likely, to severe rationing.
