Abstract

Methods. During the research, the author of the article used the following methods: structural and functional – when identifying the effect of interdependence of the industry as a group of enterprises and the economic activity of an individual enterprise that is part of it; grouping – when creating a classification of industrial enterprises of Ukraine; induction and deduction, generalization and systematization – when determining the main directions of ensuring energy efficiency at domestic enterprises and formulating recommendations regarding measures to increase the level of export orientation of industrial enterprises. Results. The article highlights the development trends of domestic industrial enterprises, the main of which is the influence of the transformation of the business environment on their activities. The main features of such a transformation are identified, namely: modernization and innovation, which become dominant factors aimed at increasing the productivity and competitiveness of enterprises; energy efficiency, export orientation and development of IT technologies; increasing the value of supply chain management and logistics to optimize production. It has been demonstrated that ensuring a balance between these directions of change will contribute to the creation of a sustainable and innovative industrial sector capable of responding to modern challenges and ensuring the sustainability of the development of the Ukrainian economy. Novelty. The author proved that industries influence the efficiency of the use of resources in the national economy (raw materials, energy and labor), which is caused by the desire of enterprises to be guided by the principles of rationality in order to maximize profit; on the social environment by providing support to local communities in the development of social and economic initiatives. The effect of interdependence was revealed, according to which the economic, technological, social and environmental aspects of the activities of enterprises within a certain industry create the conditions for the success of each individual firm that belongs to it. Practical value. Based on the analysis, it was determined that development in industry should be aimed at increasing efficiency, reducing costs, and increasing the flexibility of production systems. It also contributes to the implementation of the concepts of the industrial revolution (Industry 4.0) and the creation of modern, smart production environments.
