THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ENERGY SECTOR OF UKRAINE

Abstract

Problem statement. The conditions of a full-scale war, the destruction of critical infrastructure, the transformation of global energy markets, as well as the country's European integration course have formed an unprecedented demand for updating the principles of the energy system functioning. sector, taking into account economic, environmental, technological and social factors. The article is aimed at systematizing and generalizing the theoretical aspects of sustainable development of the energy sector of Ukraine Methods used in the study: tabular, graphic, systematization and generalization, etc. The hypothesis of the study was the assumption that the emphasis on sustainable development of the energy sector of Ukraine differs in the context of sustainable development in general. Summary of the main material: the main components of sustainable development of the energy sector of Ukraine have been identified: energy security, economic efficiency, environmental sustainability, social orientation and innovative development. Emphasis in sustainable energy development has been identified: social balance, environmental acceptability and economic efficiency. Studies of the theoretical content of sustainable development of the energy sector have proved that this is a complex economic model of transformation and functioning of the national energy system, aimed at long-term provision of society with affordable, safe and environmentally balanced energy resources, based on the principles of rational use of natural resources, innovative renewal of the technological base, diversification of energy sources and minimization of external risks. The originality and practical significance of the study lies in the transformation of the theoretical approach to the sustainable development of the energy sector of Ukraine, which directly affects the practical aspect and vice versa. Conclusions. The article systematically outlines the principles on which the modernization and transformation of the domestic energy sector should be based in the context of military challenges and future post-war reconstruction. Further research should be directed to modeling the impact of sustainable energy practices on macroeconomic stability, assessing the attractive investment of the energy sector in the post-war period, as well as developing indicators for assessing the level of sustainability of the energy system at the national and regional levels
