CRITICAL ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURES – ENHANCING ELEMENT OF NATIONAL SECURITY
CRITICAL ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURES – ENHANCING ELEMENT OF NATIONAL SECURITY

Summary/Abstract: Any evaluation or analysis of critical energy infrastructures (CEnI) must proceed from a reality so often demonstrated: the incapacity or destruction of any CEnI may have a major impact on energy and economic security of a country. The negative consequences will be felt not only in the field of economic security, but also in all other dimensions of national security, not only in that state, but also in other interconnected states. The impairment of any CEnI may have repercussions on the energy, economic and national security with serious effects on economic development, health and public safety. Therefore, the concerns of national, regional and international organizations are focused in recent years on developing specific mechanisms for the identification and designation of ICEn, risk assessment and increased protection.
