PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION MECHANISMS TOOLKIT FOR ENSURING ENERGY SECURITY OF STATE IN THE CONDITIONS OF CURRENT CHALLENGES

Abstract

Abstract. In view of the violation of the main canons of international law, disregard for the free will of independent states and non-compliance with the resolutions and charters of international organizations formed as a result of the Second World War by individual member countries that founded the aforementioned organizations, and having in mind an unstable financial situation on the international energy markets of the world, it was proposed to study the adaptive mechanism of public management, through the implementation of its tools in the conditions of constant changes and threats to the energy security of the state. The purpose of the research is to study the toolkits of public management mechanisms aimed at forming a dynamic and adaptive response to threats and challenges to the energy security of the state, and to provide recommendations on the diversification of the energy generation types in Ukraine, having regard to the balance ratio in the fuel and energy complex during the post-war period. Methodology. The article provides an analysis of legal acts, which purpose is to record acts of energy terrorism through the implementation of public management mechanisms tools at the national level, particularly in the energy sector. The scientific novelty of the research consists in developing the term "state energy terrorism" (a set of illegal actions directed by the enemy side of one of the parties to the conflict against the civil complex of the fuel and energy infrastructure of the state with the aim of destroying, blocking and causing maximum damage to the energy security of the state, by all available ways and methods. ) based on the study of situational and adaptive mechanisms of public administration in extremely challenging conditions, such as military operations, and introducing the proposal of a strategic regulatory act as a future toolkit for adapting the generation types of the fuel and energy complex of Ukraine through its effective implementation and long-term realization. Conclusions. The spheres of implementation of public management mechanisms, with the aim of ensuring energy security of Ukraine, in the dynamic response of wartime, with military and civilian directions, have been differentiated. The paper provides a detailed allocation of the functions (with civilian direction) of the implementation of public management mechanisms in ensuring the energy security of the state in wartime conditions into internal, external (domestic), external (international) and perspective-strategic (planned). It is proposed to form the latest regulatory project of the act, which will ensure the formation and long-term preservation of a sufficiently acceptable level of energy security of Ukraine and will be a key tool of the mechanism of public management in the energy realm.
