Analysis of Energy Efficiency of the Economy of Asian Russia

Abstract

The significance of the eastern direction in Russia’s energy policy increases over time. Computer modeling of the development of the energy complex in the eastern regions of Russia is of great theoretical and practical importance as a method for studying large and complex systems. The purpose of the study is energy-economic analysis, the identification of trends and patterns of development of the energy complex of the eastern regions, the determination of factors affecting the energy efficiency of the economy. Research methods are economic and mathematical modeling, system and statistical analysis, balance and indicative methods. Results of the study: energy balances for 2005-20016 have been developed, an analysis of the energy complex of the eastern regions of Russia has been carried out, the main problems of its development have been identified, the forecast of the energy intensity of the gross regional product and the costs of technological innovation have been made. Conclusions: to eliminate the problems of the development of the energy complex of the eastern regions, it is necessary to increase the energy efficiency of their economies, it is necessary to improve the structure of the energy balance of the eastern regions of Russia and introduce technological innovations in all spheres of economic activity. Energy saving measures will reduce the cost of production and consumption of fuel and energy resources, reduce losses at all stages of their life cycle. Planned indicators of socio-economic development can be achieved with less energy and financial costs.
