Tartalmi kivonat:The paper describes sustainability conflicts created by some of the economic policies on environmental protection and to achieve a sustainable energy policy. The present paper draws on the hypothesis that green energy projects create conflicts of sustainability by increasing the price of electricity, thus damaging the economy by decreasing the competitiveness of production factors and also creates social conflicts and other serious problems for exposed social strata. This paper describes the first global aspects regarding the use of natural resources and energy, a short presentation of the European policies, country (Romania) and local level situations with special attention to the energy sector and environmental requirements. It describes the general framework of policies for the use of natural resources in Romania. The social and economic conflicts presented are related to broader conflicts concerning green energy, in particular wind energy. Although the objective of green energy projects is a very good one, as they have less negative impacts on the environment. However, these projects have also some disadvantages and may present inconveniences that might be disadvantageous in the long run. The economic aspects analysed here are: the structure of ownership of these investments and their way of subsidising the costs and benefits. From a social perspective the paper focuses on the positive side of these investments, their costs and social risks as well as on the measures taken by and the involvement of the Government and the effects brought by these measures. In the section related to environmental problems there will be discussed some of the negative effects of green-green and green investments. The paper relies on data given in formal agreements, contracts with European Union, statistical data from the National Institute for Statistics, National Agency in Energy and Government data.
