Abstract.

The state of implementation of the main indicators of the energy strategy of Ukraine for the period until 2035 has been analyzed. It is shown, that nonreplacement of compensatory growth resulting from catastrophically low volumes of target geological exploration in the depths of the effective reserves of natural gas, oil and fossil coal extracted over the past 20 years,  and a low degree of use of alternative and renewable energy sources – below the minimum critical limit in the national energy balance, determined the system dependence of Ukraine’s economy from imports of natural gas, petroleum products, fossil coal and anthracite at inflated non-equilibrium prices.

The scientific basis of the research is the methodology of institutional economic theory, a comprehensive analysis of the main indicators of the Energy Strategy of Ukraine for the period up to 2035 using the economic theory of sustainable development, a systematic, historical and statistical analysis of the performance indicators of the fuel and energy complex of Ukraine and the European and Ukrainian experience in reforming basic industries.

Innovative prospects for the sustainable development of the national fuel and energy complex for the long term have been substantiated, taking into account the structurally unified nationwide energy supply system and the interests of future generations and the environment.

It is proposed to overcome the negative trends in reducing the role of industry in the transformation of the national economy into a pan-European economic space, by significantly reducing the energy intensity of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) to the average European level and maximizing the use of the existing domestic mineral potential to increase its own production of hydrocarbons, uranium, coal and methane from coal reservoirs and deposits, as well as a significant increase in final energy consumption for renewable energy sources. Considering that coal and nuclear energy are used and will be used in the near future at existing power plants, their share in energy consumption should be approximately equal.

Keywords: coal and gas, oil and gas condensate and gas condensate fields, gas-bearing stratum, sand reservoirs.
