Abstract
In this article, the main objective is the comparative analysis of Romania and its neighboring countries regarding the final energy consumption by product indicator. By analyzing this indicator in dynamics, the main goal is to present Romania's situation compared to other neighboring countries. Of the countries analyzed, three of the states are member states of the European Union (Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary) and three are candidate states (Republic of Moldova, Serbia and Ukraine). This paper aims to identify the differences in the final energy consumption by product behavior of the five neighboring countries of Romania, regardless of whether they are part of the European Union or not.
