The increase in energy consumption in developing countries will be growing imports, including from Russia net import of energy resources for individual countries in , mlillion tone

Enhancing technological competition is a feature modern development of world energy Expenses for research and development work in the energy sector * in , $ billion (in 2011 prices) * For 28 member countries of the International Energy Agency (Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom and the United States).

Enhancing technological competition is a feature modern development of world energy Since the early 2000s, the scale of research and development work, conducted in the power industry, significantly increased. Currently developed countries spend annually on scientific research in energy about $ 20 billion Many developing countries, such as China, India, Brazil are also trying access to new technologies in the energy, and develop their own Russia has a significant accumulated technological potential in the field of of energy
