The purpose of the study is to evaluate innovation activity in the countries of the world. Based on the use of statistical, comparative, systemic and logical methods, an analysis of indicators of innovative activity was carried out, as a result of which it was concluded that Russia lags behind other countries in terms of innovative development. Using methods of economic and factor analysis, a factor model was formed in the work, which included groups of global, national, industry and corporate factors, the management of which will ensure a sustainable transition to innovative technologies of the national economy. In the ending of the study the main conclusions and results of the work are presented.

Issues of environmental conservation and biological diversity for future generations come to the fore in connection with increasing volumes of production waste and emissions of pollutants into the air. The study formulated the basic mechanisms for ensuring environmental safety, among which we can single out the environmental assessment of the regions, environmental monitoring and organizational and management decisions aimed at preserving the natural environment for future generations. As part of the work, the state environmental protection program for the period from 2012 to 2020 was reviewed, with a budget allocation of 286.65 billion rubles, and environmental safety indicators, as a result of which, it was concluded that there were no progressive changes in matters of environmental protection. Based on what, the authors of the study proposed a conceptual model for ensuring environmental safety of the environment, based on the convergence of all organizational structures and the development of joint subprograms to preserve the natural environment for future generations. In conclusion, the study presents the main findings and results of the work.

The study is devoted to assessing the technical and technological sustainability of industrial production in the Russian Federation. The study proved that the basis of the Russian economy is industrial production, the results of which form the country’s gross domestic product, maintains socio-economic stability and provides the population with various consumer goods. At the same time, the analyzed indicators of output, depreciation and renewal of fixed assets and the level of innovative development of production capacities indicate a drop in the technical and technological stability of industrial production. The work proposed a structural-logical scheme for ensuring technological development and economic sustainability of industrial production, containing requirements for the development of indicators for determining sustainability and mechanisms for its achievement in the context of the implementation of different scenarios for the development of industrial production. In conclusion, the study presents the main findings and results of the work.

The current state of the economy and society is influenced by the global integration processes taking place in Eurasia - the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union, which should unite the markets for resources, goods and capital of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union. One of the aspects of this process is the creation of a unified electricity market, which ensures free flow of electrical energy, free pricing and competition in the power industry. The purpose of this study is to study the degree of readiness of national energy systems for integration and to identify problems that impede the formation of the Common Electricity Market of the Eurasian Economic Union. The methods used were statistical analysis tools, a graphical method, comparisons and descriptions. The study was carried out on the basis of the use of information provided in the open access of the Eurasian Economic Union, national statistical services and energy companies. The authors have identified the main goals and objectives, as well as the requirements and expected results of the creation of the Common Electricity Market. As a result of the analysis of national power systems, a number of problems were identified that impede their convergence, including inconsistencies in the scale of production, various pricing mechanisms and electricity price regulation, differences in the energy balance of the Eurasian Economic Union member states, different levels of electricity prices, and a particular opinion Of the Republic of Belarus to the concept of market formation and the lack of unified borders of Armenia with other participating countries Union. The findings of the study indicate that by the stated date, namely July 1, 2019, the Common Electricity Market will most likely not be created for the reasons stated. To solve the identified problems, the authors propose several tools, one of the most important among them is the mechanism of regulatory and legal regulation of electricity markets at the national and supranational levels. Also, according to the authors, in the integration processes in the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union should consider the world experience of such political and economic associations.

In recent years, issues related to the protection of the environment and the preservation of the environment for future generations come to the fore. This issue is most relevant for industrial enterprises whose capacities were commissioned 40-50 years ago, while at the same time there was no qualitative and quantitative renewal of equipment for this period. The paper reviewed the indicators of emissions of pollutants by economic activity, as a result, it was concluded that about 26% of all emissions are generated as a result of the functioning of the fuel and energy complex. At the same time, the costs of environmental protection increase by the level of annual inflation and the volume of costs of environmental protection as a percentage of the gross domestic product of the country tends to fall. In the conditions of instability of the national economy and limited financial resources, the authors of the study proposed a mechanism for the formation of an environmental strategy for the fuel and energy complex of the Russian Federation, which is based on a tripartite interaction of state and regional authorities and energy companies.

The article explores issues related to the transition of modern organizations to digital technology. It is planned that by 2036 about 50% of jobs will be automated and, as a result, this will lead to a transformation of the labor market and a change in the socio-economic situation in the regions and in the country as a whole. The study provides data on the high degree of computerization of modern Russian organizations, which actually increases the overall involvement of staff in the organization’s activities and business efficiency. In order to effectively transition to digital technologies, modern organizations must adapt to changing conditions and conduct organizational training. The study suggested that in the digital era, it is necessary to use public-private partnership mechanisms that will allow the formation of knowledge bases in conjunction with educational and scientific institutions and business structures, which will quickly adapt to changing conditions and maintain a holistic organizational system of enterprises. At the end of the work, conclusions are drawn from the results of the study.
