Development of Alternative Energy in the World and Ukraine.

The relevance of this study is conditioned upon the wide spread of alternative energy sources around the world and in Ukraine, as well as the need for theoretical development and practical implementation of modern methods for establishing non-standard energy mechanisms in Ukraine and in the world. The main purpose of this study was to analyse key trends in the development of alternative energy in Ukraine and the world in the current socio-economic conditions. The methodological approach in this paper was based on a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods of research on issues related to the analysis of key growth vectors of non-standard methods of energy production in modern conditions. During this study, results were obtained that indicate the existence of a clearly structured interrelation between the degree of development of alternative energy sources and the types of fuel used in them, including the presence of prospects for the development of alternative energy sources in the conditions of modern Ukraine, provided the high-quality investment support for projects that are being implemented for the development of alternative energy. The results obtained in this study, as well as the conclusions formulated on their basis, are of significant practical importance for various branches of Ukrainian and world industry, the real technological capabilities of which allow the use of renewable energy sources for their ability to meet the life needs of all types of industrial enterprises, for their further full functioning and solving any technological problems facing these enterprises [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
