“…South Baltic and Central Baltic, played a key role in supporting transnational NUTS 3 units and an adjacent area of eight NUTS 3 units. In the following period 2014-2020, the qualified area stretched to embrace two regions in Finland: Satakunta as the core area and Pirkanmaa as the additional area (Central Baltic Programme 2014, 2021.…”

“…In practice, however, macro-regional strategies showed a number of flaws, including a lack of new funds. Therefore, the greatest renewable energy success of the strategy in transnational cooperation was the improved cooperation between stakeholders and support for flag projects particularly important for the ambitious strategy goals (Palmowski, 2021). Territorial cooperation concerning renewable energy in the BSR gained impetus with the developing Baltic integration process beginning early in the twentieth century.…”

The implementation of the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region has made the use of renewable energy sources a priority. The Region has always been economically and ecologically very diverse. The development of transnational cooperation became an opportunity to bridge the existing disparities and support renewable energy development. The aim of the article is to answer the question how the transnational cooperation implemented under the EU Cohesion Policy could contribute to BSR energy transition. The authors elaborated a research model, which presents a sequence of activities. The research used secondary sources, including KEEP data. EU. EUROSTAT, EUSBSR. The article examined the cooperation carried out within 41 projects financed under seven territorial cooperation programs in the BSR in the period 2000-2020. The research results are presented in terms of the subject, subject and space with the visualization made on the basis of NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 units

“…Economic cooperation with the former Baltic Soviet republics dwindled, whilst economic ties with the other countries of the Baltic macro-region (or the Baltic Sea region) -Germany, Poland, Sweden, Denmark and Finland -grew stronger. A range of publications by Russian and international authors [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] looks at the dynamics, possibilities and prospects of the formation of a Baltic macro-region as a cohesive socio-economic whole.…”

The article explores the challenges encountered during the formation of the Baltic macro-region comprising Russia and eight EU countries (Germany, Poland, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia) in the context of the ongoing geopolitical and geo-economic changes. The article aims to assess the dynamics, level, structure and pace of economic development of three Russian regions located on the Baltic Sea (St. Petersburg, Leningrad and Kaliningrad regions) and analyse the intensity of their trade relations with countries of the macro-region. Russian Baltic regions have higher development rates compared to the national average. However, they experience difficulties in their economic development resulting from negative external factors. The article describes possible ways of overcoming these difficulties by improving the sectoral structure of the economy and diversifying international ties. In this context, the development of inter-regional cooperation and the formation of a spatially distributed territorial socio-economic system, including the three Russian Baltic regions, will be particularly beneficial. The period covered by the article is 1996—2021, with a special focus on 2014—2021. The study is based on the economic and statistical analysis of official data of Rosstat and the Federal Customs Service on the sectoral structure and dynamics of the gross regional product (GRP), volume and changes in foreign trade, and its commodity and geographical structure.

“…In such conditions, multi-level collaboration in the Baltic Sea region was required to be coordinated. This was made feasible in large part by an EU initiative in which the Baltic Sea Region's countries agreed to establish and implement a macro-regional strategy, namely the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region [40]. The primary objective of the strategy was to save the Baltic Sea, to connect and to augment the prosperity of the region.…”

Energy transition is a multi-dimensional process of developing sustainable economies by seeking renewable energy sources, saving energy, and improving energy efficiency. This process follows the rules of sustainable development. The article presents an analysis of energy transition in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) enjoying long-term and intensive territorial cooperation. The region embraces 11 countries diversified in terms of their economic development level and the use of renewable energy sources. The article strives to answer the question of whether territorial cooperation contributes to BSR energy transition, and if so, in what way. Another goal is to identify the transition drivers that arise from the Baltic Sea Region’s unique characteristics. The authors applied the system analysis methodology. The performed literature studies allowed the researchers to identify the attributes of energy transition. Empirical research relied on secondary sources, including the European Union (EU) statistics, The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region (EUSBSR), and related documents. The key role in the conducted research can be attributed to the EU projects database (keep.eu), which enabled identifying the 2016–2020 programmes and projects. The research identified 14 BSR territorial cooperation programmes and 1471 projects conducted under the programmes, including 137 energy transition-related projects. The project results were presented in quantitative and qualitative terms.
