Аннотация:This work is devoted to the analysis of modern trends in the development of green energy in Russia. In recent years, Russia has been making a lot of efforts to develop alternative energy, as the entire world community is currently focused on finding solutions to the problem of rational use of natural resources. But at the same time, the level of use of green energy in Russia is significantly inferior, for example, to China, a number of other European countries, which is primarily due to the vast territory of the country, as well as the imperfection of the technological base. The article will attempt to analyze the state of green energy in Russia and forecast the prospects for its development. Attention will be paid to the advantages and disadvantages of alternative energy sources and the technical capabilities of their production on the basis of Russian enterprises will be analyzed, as well as the experience of a number of foreign countries on the use of green energy will be touched upon.
