- The competitive development of the country's economy requires the creation of a new technological basis for development, based on energy conservation and energy efficiency, broad modernization of energy infrastructure. Energy saving today is not only the rational use of electricity, but also the search and development of new sources of energy and the introduction of new technologies that reduce the energy intensity of production and technological processes. And energy efficiency is the most effective means of reducing energy security, competitiveness and reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants. The tasks of achieving energy efficiency and energy conservation are large-scale, therefore, they need to master the world's best practices and involve large-scale mechanisms with state participation. Such mechanisms include, in particular, public-private partnership (PPP). Accordingly, the purpose of the article is to highlight the experience of industrialized countries in the field of energy efficiency and to substantiate the potential of public-private partnerships in the field of energy conservation and energy efficiency. The high efficiency of PPP as a form of interaction between the state and business in the field of energy efficiency and energy saving is substantiated, world experience is compared, in comparison with models of the PPP of France and Germany. The French model has been recognized as a priority for Ukraine, provided that the critical assets of the critical infrastructure will be as much state owned as possible. At the same time, it is advisable to implement the clarity and transparency of the PPP in the German model in Ukraine in the face of balancing control and incentive measures and levers, avoiding unnecessary bureaucracy. It is substantiated that the potential of PPP in the field of energy saving and energy efficiency, recognized as the engine of economic development in the world, is still not used in Ukraine. It is proposed for the PPP to distinguish critical infrastructure - a set of objects that are strategically important for the economy and national security, the disruption of which can harm vital national interests. The main argument is that infrastructure is critical, which makes PPP the best way to develop it, as it causes large investments and risks, long-term projects, and an impact on national security.
