For many years, the Institute has been continuously carrying out scientific work on the creation and improvement of methods and tools for researching the prospects for the development of branches of the energy complex of Ukraine. With the use of these tools, developments were carried out at the Institute on the instructions of the President of Ukraine, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the Ministry of Energy and Coal Industry of Ukraine, and other central authorities.
the projects of the Comprehensive State Energy Saving Program of Ukraine, approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 142 dated 14.02.1997, and the Energy Strategy of Ukraine for the period until 2030, approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No. 145 of 15.03.2006 were the most important developments. During the development of these documents, General Energy Institute of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine performed developer`s functions.
