Belarus’s energy sector is dominated by state-owned companies operating under supervision of the Ministry of Energy in electricity, gas and part of the heat sector, and under BelNefteKhim (Belarus State Concern for Oil and Chemistry) in the oil, refining and petrochemicals sector.
Belarus is involved in implementing numerous interstate and international treaties in energy, including participation in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) agreement on the co‑ordination of interstate relations in the power sector, and the treaty on the parallel operations of power systems of the CIS.
Total energy consumption (measured by total primary energy supply) in Belarus was 27.0 Mtoe in 2018, comparable with consumption in Norway and Hungary. The industry sector is the largest final energy consumer with a 36% share (7.3 Mtoe in 2018); it is also the greatest consumer of electricity and heat.
The strategic plans of the Baltic States’ and Ukraine’s energy systems to join the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity (ENTSO-E) energy system have reduced the external connections – and thus the reliability – of Belarus’s energy system.
Belarus does not have a single independent energy regulatory authority. The Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade is responsible for regulating electricity and heat tariffs for industrial customers, independent suppliers and all categories other than residential consumers, based on the 2011 Decree on Price Tariffs.
On 1 September 2013, the STB ISO 50001-2013 standard on energy management systems became valid in Belarus. Unlike energy audits, it is voluntary for organisations to implement an energy management system.
