This article gives analysis of best practices in implementation of energy efficient technolo-
gies in the Nordic countries with socially oriented market economy. The analysis of energy
efficiency problems solving experience is carried out based on the example of such North-
ern Europe countries as Denmark, Finland and Sweden. The effect of the energy-saving
policy in each country is evaluated in dynamics using the ODEX energy efficiency index.
The article describes key factors that have contributed into the energy efficiency index
decline. It also summarizes the experience in energy problems solving without increasing
the cost of living for the population. The author considers the projects targeted to improve
energy efficiency currently introduced in the Russian Federation, both in the capital and
in the regions. Zero growth rate for electricity cost is proven to be one of the most im-
portant measures for energy efficiency improvement. The basic problems relevant for this
industry in Russia today are determined. The prospects for Scandinavian experience to be
adopted for the energy efficiency challenges in Russia are evaluated.
Keywords:
energy efficiency, energy conservation, the methodology of energy
consumption, energy efficiency index, the problems of energy efficiency.
