If the targets set are fulfilled, significant improvement of the main energy indicators will be achieved. The comparison is made on the basis of the situation in 2005, the forecast for 2020 assuming preservation of the present-day policy (Reference Scenario) and the forecast for 2020 assuming implementation of the strategic goals (Target scenario): The key goal to be pursued is energy efficiency improvement. The main indicator of this is energy intensiveness of the GDP. If the targets for two-fold reduction of energy intensiveness by 2020 are achieved, this national indicator is expected to come closer to the average for the Community, which will be reflected in many- sided benefits. Achievement of the target indicator of energy intensiveness, 456 toe/MEURO5, will enable the sustainable economic growth, realized with lower energy demand. Till 2020 the total energy demand decreases by 21%, while GDP increases by 58.5% compared to 2005. Performance of the planned measures and policies with respect to energy efficiency will produce the following positive effects in comparison with the Reference Scenario around 2020: 17.5% lower, or 1.94 mio. toe final consumption of energy; saving of 26.8%, or 5.8 mio. toe primary energy per year as a result of energy efficient final consumption, energy efficiency in the energy sector and larger share of the directly used natural gas and RES. As a result of efficiency improvement in the energy sector and of adoption of the direct use of natural gas and RES in the households, the relation between final and total energy demand reaches 58%. This means that the same energy requirements of the end users in 2020 will require 17% less primary energy resources compared to 2005, respectively 12% less compared to the Reference scenario. The increased use of natural gas in the households has a positive energy saving and environmental effect, but a negative impact with respact to dependency on 3000 As a result of efficiency improvement in the energy sector and of adoption of the direct use of natural gas and RES in the households, the relation between final and total energy demand reaches 58%.
