Abstract

The energy sector of each country is a part of the national economic subsystems which directly and to a considerable degree has an influence on the growth rate of the national economy and the increase of national income. Therefore it is a permanent objective to always provide a rational basis for the provision of society with demand-determined supply of energy sources. A tool for the proper achievement of this goal is the application of mathematical-economic models for optimization of the energy sector with consideration of national economic constraints. It is in the interest of society to include the largest possible system in the optimization models. According to the current condition of our understanding, that type of objective can be achieved only with mathematical-economic system models which consider all essential economic, technological, technical, parameters, and to a limited degree also political-economic influences.
