Ветроэнергетика как фактор устойчивости региональных экономических систем

Abstract

Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals implies access for all to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy by 2030. Implementing this strategy requires cheap and safe ways to produce energy that can be obtained on a continuous basis and without harming the environment and public health. Thus, traditional types of energy should become a thing of the past, giving way to the development of alternative energy sources, since an important factor is not only carbon neutrality, but also the preservation of the natural envi-ronment when obtaining energy. In this regard, wind energy is of interest, as the cost of wind energy is rapidly decreasing, and the ways of obtaining energy are becoming more and more accessible due to new technolo-gies. However, today wind energy does not participate in the energy balance of the country, and the Russian wind energy market is small and accounts for less than 1 % of the global market. This is due to the abundance of fossil energy resources, which provides the country with economic and energy security. At the same time, it seems very likely that for Russia, taking into account the huge natural, climatic and landscape diversity of its regions, the organizational, technological and legal experience in the development of one of the fastest grow-ing and, due to this circumstance, the most promising types of alternative energy – wind power – can be quite effective in some regions of Denmark, which achieved the greatest progress in this area and has outstanding experience in achieving sustainable development goals.
