Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES. Determining the direction of energy saving development is a significant aspect and is present in the policy of rational use of energy resources of leading countries, in most cases it affects the direct consumer and producer of energy, as well as administrative measures. Implementation of best practices of energy efficiency of all types of activities is a tool to improve energy autonomy of universities in Ukraine.METHODS. The study used: the predictive method – to determine the progress of implementation of EU Directive 2012/27/EC in Ukraine; method of comparative analysis – to determine the optimal mechanisms to promote energy efficiency in different countries and the possibility of implementing this experience to create a system of energy efficiency in Ukrainian universities.FINDINGS. Using and expanding the experience of participation in the project to provide energy efficient and comfortable conditions of study in Ukrainian universities together with the European Investment Bank and the Nordic Environment Corporation will allow to upgrade 200 teaching, research and support facilities in 21 universities to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and reduce operating costs of public higher education institutions; quality of teaching, learning, teaching, research and residential buildings. Implementation of such experience will improve the energy efficiency of universities, optimize mechanisms for state regulation, control and stimulation of energy efficiency; solve problems and expand the power of executive authorities and local governments, energy autonomy of universities.CONCLUSION. The analysis of the successes and difficulties of higher professional education for people with disabilities shows that there is an objective need to consolidate the efforts of the higher education community with regional public organizations, executive authorities, regional and city institutions of health, education and social protection to support young people with disabilities.
Highlights
Energy efficiency and energy saving are among the five strategic priorities of the country's economic modernization (Di Stefano, 2000)
Ukraine has undertaken a number of international obligations to implement energy efficiency reforms by signing the Association Agreement with the European Union (EU), becoming a member of the Energy Community and joining the concept and goals of sustainable development of the United Nations (UN) (Gryshchenko et al, 2017)
The basis for the creation of the energy efficiency system is the transposition of EU Directives, in particular Directive 2012/27/EC and Directive 2010/31/EC (Kaplun and Shcherbak, 2016)
Summary
Energy efficiency and energy saving are among the five strategic priorities of the country's economic modernization (Di Stefano, 2000). The purpose of the study is to propose a mechanism for implementing best practices to improve the energy efficiency of universities. The following results have been achieved by implementing the state program "Energy saving and energy efficiency for the period up to 2030": preparation of a regulatory framework in the field of energy efficiency; creation and launch of a system of state support measures for energy saving and energy efficiency; pilot training courses for state and municipal officials on energy management (Shcherbak et al, 2019). Determining the direction of energy and support facilities in 21 universities to saving development is a significant aspect improve the energy efficiency of and is present in the policy of rational use buildings and reduce operating costs of of energy resources of leading countries, public higher education institutions; in most cases it affects the direct quality of teaching, learning, teaching, consumer and producer of energy, as well research and residential buildings. Implementation of best practices of improve the energy efficiency of energy efficiency of all types of activities universities, optimize mechanisms for is a tool to improve energy autonomy of state regulation, control and stimulation of universities in Ukraine.
