Abstract: The subject of this research is energy saving of the served thermal energy in thermal energy supply by the producers and in heating of the objects by the consumer. The goal of this work is to reveal the potential of energy saving of served thermal energy as a tangible target of economic policy of the region. The results of this research demonstrate the energy saving potential from served thermal energy of Russia’s northern region, as well as the potential for energy saving by the consumer of thermal energy. The results of this research can be applied in calculated targets of energy saving of served thermal energy in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), as well as a method of calculation for other regions and consumers. The targets can in turn serve as encouraging motives for a more active crediting of thermal energy saving by commercial banks and/or venture funds created for these purposes. The author utilizes the method of marginal comparative analysis of actual expenses of a company in heating with normative and tax expenses. The scientific novelty consists in precise delineation of the zones of responsibility in the area of thermal energy saving between thermal supply of the producer and heating of the consumer, combination of various method in determining the potential of thermal energy saving in the region and separate objects of heating, as well as continuity in introduction of heat-saving measures in heating of objects.

Abstract: Analysis of the factors influencing the dynamics of the products delivered to a region (on the example Yakutia) is the priority objective of the government in the context of socioeconomic development of the territory. An attempt is made to determine the correlation of the region’s capacity of energy, road network, transport and communications infrastructure, agglomeration factors, labor and capital with the output in the Northern region. Due to the costliness of factors in the North, it is always a matter of choice between the development of social infrastructure and rotational system. In the course of the analysis, the author applies the indexes of labor, capital, agglomeration and infrastructure capacity, as well as the volume of shipped products in accordance with the regional statistical data over the period from 2006 to 2016, operational data of sectoral ministries, results of 2002 and 2010 national censuses. The author applies the method of indexes of the factors cited for comparability to the dimensionless numbers from 0 to 10. The scientific novelty lies in the original combination of the analysis techniques of the impact of factors upon the volumes of shipped products. The author attempts to consider the effect of fluctuation of the ruble’s exchange rate upon the regional turnover distributing products at world prices. A profound retrospective and comparable data set allowed acquiring the most realistic results.
