Energy security means to guarantee that vital future energy needs can be met and appropriate energy level can be maintained to supply domestic needs under economically acceptable conditions. From a more comprehensive perspective, energy security strives to ensure that strategic energy reserves are approaching an adequate volume. On the other hand, sustainable development defines as to keep society in its way toward development with its environmental limits over the long term. Managing and guarantying energy security is a vital action to sustain the development process over time.
