Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the newest challenges and energy security in Ukraine. It has been found that complex transformation processes of the energy sector and the economy as a whole affect the level of energy security. The analysis of approaches concerning definition of the concept of economic security in modern conditions has been carried out. The modern determinants of energy security of the country are discovered. Critical uncertainties in ensuring energy security of the country (prices and pricing for energy resources; geopolitics; climate change management) have been identified. The attention is drawn to the fact that new models of sustainable development of economy and modern concepts of realization of energy transition of countries of the world require their study from positions of provision of energy security. International approaches to the study of the problems of the energy sector of the economy, directions of its transformation and mechanisms of provision have been studied and summarized. Changes in the development of the energy sector of Ukraine’s economy and the level of energy security of Ukraine and the EU countries and under the influence of the military aggression of the Russia against Ukraine have been established. The directions and mechanisms of effective integration of energy markets in the EU and Ukraine for the purpose of energy security are grounded. The impact of climate change on energy security has been studied. The connection between sustainable development goals of countries, energy transition requirements and management of climate change processes is opened. The feasibility of introducing an integrated environmental management system in the energy sector of Ukraine’s economy and taking into account the losses associated with the Russian military aggression against Ukraine has been argued. Conclusions were drawn in the formation of new global influences on the state of energy security and sustainable energy development in the conditions of critical uncertainty. It was stressed that at present there is a high level of conflict on introduction of various instruments and mechanisms of energy security in the conditions of energy transition and strengthening of hemolytic influences.
