Abstract
The purpose of this article is to develop and substantiate a conceptual and analytical model of the structure of energy generation and consumption at the local level in the context of the decentralisation reform in Ukraine on the basis of an analysis of current world-wide and European trends as to ensuring a sufficient level of energy efficiency. The current trends of world energy consumption are illustrated, the forecast for the development of renewable energy is built, the energy efficiency analysis of the national economy is carried out. In order to form a holistic system of energy management on the local grounds, a model of generation and consumption for use at the local level is proposed, the financing of which is provided for by the results of the use of a comprehensive mechanism. A number of normative and organizational-institutional proposals on the normalization of energy efficiency improvement processes are suggested. The factors of energy efficiency of this model, financial instruments for its effective functioning in the form of a mechanism of interest-making budget revenues and specialized funds are disclosed; organizational and institutional support of such reform is proposed; the functional dependence of the target function of the model of energy generation and consumption is detailed, taking into account the methods of generation and the main consumers at the appropriate levels. The analysis of the main risks is carried out and the flaws of this process are defined; a number of regulatory and institutional transformations are proposed to improve the effectiveness of the implementation of an effective policy of energy efficiency of hromadas thus ensuring the energy security of the State. It is recognized as expedient to adopt a package of bills and resolutions on energy cooperation, organization of a biofuel exchange. The model of organization and functioning of a cooperative for the generation and consumption of solar energy, which is based on the regulatory framework, is presented. The above mentioned allowed to develop scientific and applied recommendations for improving regulatory provisions, which will enable the hromada to become an effective player in the wholesale electricity market, marketing the energy according to the green tariff.
