In May 2023, the implementation of projects of the National Research Fund of Ukraine began. The Department of Economics, Entrepreneurship and Business Administration of Sumy State University participates in the implementation of two projects of the NRFU: “Restructuring of the national economy in the direction of digital transformations for sustainable development” (No. 0122U001232) (head, Doctor of Economics, Professor O.I. Karintseva ) , and “Development of economic mechanisms for increasing energy efficiency and sustainable development of renewable energy in households of Ukraine” ( No. 0122U001233) (head: Doctor of Economics, Professor O.M. Telizhenko ).
According to the project “Restructuring of the national economy in the direction of digital transformations for sustainable development” (No. 0122U001232), in 2023, the following tasks are expected to be performed: Determine the drivers and tools of digital transformation based on world experience; evaluate the processes of restructuring the national economy in the direction of advancement to the additive (digital) economy model; to develop a methodology and toolkit for determining factor determinants and their combinations, which are the cause of regional development differentiation; To determine indicators of individual development trends of regions and characteristics of consistency of relevant regional potentials.
According to the project «Development of economic mechanisms for increasing energy efficiency and sustainable development of renewable energy in households of Ukraine” (No. 0122U001233) in 2023, the following tasks are expected to be carried out: to scientifically substantiate the theoretical foundations of managing the development of energy efficiency and renewable energy in households based on the study of the best global and domestic experience; to form the most promising directions for increasing energy efficiency and building “green” energy in the household sector of Ukraine, taking into account the role of households in the Fourth Energy Package; to determine by means of economic and mathematical modeling the factors-stimulators and destimulators of increasing the energy efficiency of private households with the identification of regional effects and assessment of environmental impact; to develop methodical approaches to identify key drivers of renewable energy development in the private household sector based on stochastic modeling of panel data; improve methodical approaches to calculating the optimal level of the “green” tariff for “green” household energy objects depending on the amount of installed capacity, the energy technology used, the structure of investment costs both from the standpoint of a private household (producer of electricity) and from the standpoint of the state (purchaser of electricity ).
We wish all members of the teams implementing NRFU projects at Sumy State University fruitful and creative work.
