 Energy security research we could divide into two branches:  Security of Energy Supply  Security of Energy Infrastructures

Security of Energy Supply

Assessment of Security of Energy Supply Different approaches are used for assessing security of energy supply in Lithuanian Energy Institute: economical modelling (MESSAGE model), disturbances impact to the energy system assessment employing probabilistic and deterministic models development of security indicators system for the assessment of energy security level.

Economical modelling MESSAGE MODEL model is designed for planning energy sector in long perspective, where could be predictable technological process; optimization function is minimization of costs of energy system during the considered period. Using model it is possible to assess and compare different energy development strategies, alternatives of using different energy resources or new energy technologies. Applying sensitivity analysis it is possible to investigate the influence of particular indicators to functioning of energy system. Results: costs of energy production, then exits limitations of: primary energy resources, environment, policy.

Two parts of energy security Energy security analysis (ESA) Goal: Investigation of different energy threats, building disturbance scenarios, simulation of energy system reaction to disturbances, barriers and system resistance against different threats, assessment of possible consequences, identification of the worse situations and suggestion of mitigation measures. Assessment of energy security level Goal: Description of energy security indicators system, calculation of integrated characteristic – energy security level, comparison energy security levels for different countries or regions, different energy development scenarios, different energy policies.

Assessment of Energy Security Level Steps : Description of energy security indicators; Grouping of indicators to different blocks; Estimation of critical and precritical values of security indicators; Assessment of weights for indicators and blocks of indicators; Performance of sensitivity analysis of indicators in critical situations; Setting of indicators correlations matrix; Setting of functional systems and equations, which consists parameters energy security of supply; Calculation of energy security level.

 Security of energy supply is assessed by analysing various energy system development scenarios  For example, just revising the last energy strategy more than 70 different development scenarios were analysed  All scenarios energy production price with various restrictions taking into account energy security were taken into account

Analysed energy system development scenarios Analysed scenarios were grouped in the following group:  Group of scenarios with various restrictions to the electricity import  Flexible non-nuclear scenarios without nuclear power plant  Scenarios with new nuclear power plant

Energy security level of analysed scenarios

 Economic analysis showed that scenarios with nuclear energy and restricted electricity import has slightly higher energy price  Assessing energy security as price increase and system resistance to possible perturbations, we can state that scenarios nuclear energy has higher energy security level

Security of Energy Infrastructures

 Two approaches are used:  Deterministic  Probabilistic

 The solution of the infrastructure security problem is consisting of two parts: 1. Identification of the critical elements of the infrastructure, the development of security plans. 2. The analysis and assessment of infrastructure criticality.

Concluding remarks  In Lithuania we have developed and approved methodology for energy security analysis  Energy security assessment is significant only when it is compared with other countries or regions. For that reason unified understanding of energy security and usage of the common methodology should be implemented  Methodologies developed in Lithuania could be a good starting point at least in Baltic States to introduce unified energy security assessment concept. That would enable to assess separate projects and entire situation.

Concluding remarks  Despite the fact that research in the field of energy security is performed in Lithuania, further collaboration and integration of efforts in this field should be accomplished in Baltic Sea region and entire Europe.
