ПЕРСПЕКТИВИ ВІДНОВЛЕННЯ ЕНЕРГЕТИЧНОГО СЕКТОРУ УКРАЇНИ НА ЗАСАДАХ СТАЛОГО РОЗВИТКУ

Abstract

Today, a solid foundation is being laid for the systemic structural modernization of the domestic energy complex on the basis of sustainable development. It is primarily about the formation of a qualitatively new energy profile of Ukraine on the basis of bringing the activities of the national energy sector into compliance with the requirements of the European Green Course and its systemic innovation, the deep "embedding" of the energy complex into European energy markets, a drastic reduction in the level of energy intensity of the gross domestic product, the dynamic development of renewable energy, complete replacement of outdated coal-fired generation by renewable generation, and – especially – establishment of large-scale hydrogen production. Moreover, precisely during the period of post-war recovery of the economy of Ukraine, a wide "window of opportunity" opens for it to finally get rid of many objects of the Soviet energy legacy, rebuilding its energy infrastructure with the funds of foreign partners, forming fundamentally new structural segments and fundamentally modernizing all market institutions of the domestic energy market, as required by the parameters of national energy security. In the post-war recovery of the energy sector of Ukraine on the basis of sustainable development, prompt resolution of a number of financial issues is required. All the mentioned measures of "greening" of the energy sector of Ukraine in the post-war period are able not only to ensure its systematic modernization on the basis of sustainable development, but also to significantly increase the level of its productivity and integration into the European energy space. It is within the framework of the latter that stable material, technical and organizational and economic prerequisites for the national energy security of our country can be formed with the development of diversified cooperative ties of Ukrainian and European producers of energy products. In this way, it is possible to achieve both a significant increase in income and employment in the domestic energy sector, as well as an increase in the efficiency of its functioning and a more complete satisfaction of the energy needs of Ukrainian and European energy consumers without harming the environment.
