Theoretical approaches of development of energy saving projects in the modern world

Abstract

In the article the need to develop energy-saving projects in connection with the annual increase in energy consumption is revealed. The author of the article notes that the development and implementation of energy-saving projects depends largely on the availability of investment resources and energy-saving measures focused on obtaining resource savings through energy audit and analysis of energy efficiency indicators. In the article, all energy-saving measures are divided into two groups: technical and economic. The author reveals the following features of the activity direction on energy saving: project activity, procurement activity, research work, organizational and technical activity, investment activity and others. It might also be highlighted that different criteria can be used as a benchmark for energy conservation. The most common reference point for control actions is the direction of energy saving. This direction of energy saving is known as the probable saving of energy and energy resources as a result of the implementation of a set of energy saving measures, which includes the involvement of renewable energy sources in the economic turnover and the reduction of consumption of expensive and scarce resources.
