Abstract

Objective. To analyse the trends and opportunities for the development of information and communication technologies, digitalisation of the economy and the use of renewable energy sources as one of the main elements of the basis for innovative development of the national economy and society. Results. The article considers the essence of the concept of ?innovation?, analyses the trends in the development of information and communication and digital technologies, the level of use of renewable energy sources as a basis for the growth of economic security of the country and social development of society. Prospects for growth in the use of solar, wind, hydropower, thermal water, and biological energy resources are investigated. Scientific novelty. Many scientists have been and are still studying the problems of innovative development of the national economy and society. This research topic is extremely relevant, as it makes it possible to address energy and resource conservation issues and guides the state towards Ukraine's integration into the EU. The introduction of innovative, information, digital, production and other technologies opens the way to closer interstate cooperation in the development of renewable energy sources, which in the future will definitely have an impact not only on the country's energy security but also on improving the environmental situation. Given that renewable energy sources are inexhaustible and environmentally friendly, and that digitalisation of the economy is a tool for obtaining and transmitting information on the development of innovative technologies using non-fossil energy sources, they are together one of the main components of the basis for innovative development of the national economy and society. One of the most important areas of innovative development of the country's society and economy is the technical and technological development of the resource potential of renewable energy sources. In addressing the issue of energy independence, the state is focusing its efforts on obtaining energy from such sources as solar, wind, household and industrial waste, hydro- and geothermal energy, and biofuels and gas. Practical significance. The essence of the economic category ?innovation? is revealed and the relationship of this concept with the innovative development of the economy and society in Ukraine is established. The use of innovative information and communication technologies and digitalisation of the economy are analysed. An assessment of the innovative development of energy in Ukraine and the use of renewable energy sources is made, which indicates a gradual transition of the country's public economy to innovative ways of development. The use of non-fossil energy resources as a way out of the energy crisis, economic growth, and improvement of living standards is substantiated. Keywords: innovation, information and communication technologies, digitalisation, society, economy, renewable energy sources.
