Lie bialgebra structures on e(2) are classified. For two Lie bialgebra
structures which are not coboundaries (i.e. those which are not deter
mined by a classical r-matrix) we solve the cocycle condition, find th
e Lie-Poisson brackets and obtain quantum group relations. There is on
e to one correspondence between Lie bialgebra structures on e(2) and p
ossible quantum deformations of U(e(2)) and E(2).
