Summary/Abstract: The new trend in Lithuanian electricity sector governance in recent years is determining a new relation between the public and private sectors in the electricity energy. Theoretical presumptions of the relation of participation of the public and private sectors in the electricity sector have been analyzed and an analysis on the relevant experience of Lithuania has been carried out. In this research, an empirical qualitative analysis has been carried out, which allows a more comprehensive and detailed structuring of the depiction of the subject under analysis, and a better understanding the phenomenon. Experts of the electricity sector were surveyed for the qualitative analysis. The presented model illustrates the recommended relations between the public and private sectors concerning the participants of the electricity economy: transmission networks are attributed to the public sector; energy producers and distribution networks, depending on technical, economic and social factors, may be attributed to the public or private sector.
