Abstract

The Arctic territories have a low population density due to the severity of the climate. Nevertheless, the indigenous people have been living in the Arctic for centuries. Ensuring their energy security is a complex technical task and at the same time is one of the significant costs of regional state budgets. The article analyzes the energy balance of the Arctic administrative regions of the largest region of the Russian Federation - the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Potential optimization of energy balance while maintaining the existing technological platform.

Highlights

The Arctic is the most important part of the Russian Federation
The Republic is the most difficult region in terms of ensuring energy security. This is due to the lack of yearround transport infrastructure
Optimization of the energy balance is the main tool for analyzing ways to reduce the necessary reserve funds

Summary

Introduction

The Arctic is the most important part of the Russian Federation. Interest and claims to the Arctic resources and territories have other states too. The interaction of states in the Arctic is regulated by documents of international law and treaties between individual states. These documents are valid only when maintaining the balance of power in the world at the time of their signing. The Russian Arctic is not an empty territory, recorded only by the military presence. This is the original habitat of many peoples - citizens the Russian Federation [1-5]. Energy infrastructure of the Arctic regions of the republic are given
