One of the most important policy documents is the Energy Strategy of the Republic of Moldova until 2020, which has been published in 2007 and has three strategic objectives: security of energy supply, promoting energy and economic efficiency, and liberalization of the energy market and restructuring of power industry. The Ministry of Economy monitors the progress of strategy implementation on a quarterly basis.
