Recommendations for system update of strategy, economic and technological regulations of stakeholders 'activities of gas supply systems in Ukraine

The subject of the research is gas transmission and gas distribution systems of settlements of Ukraine. The aim of the study is to analyze the existing measures and technical means for the organization of natural gas metering in the country and to develop a concept for creating a multilevel system of intelligent metering of natural gas units, which will solve the existing problem of actual fuel consumption between gas transmission company and gas distribution companies, suppliers and consumers. , and also will promote daily balancing of natural gas between all subjects of this market and adjustment of payments in the stipulated terms. Research methods. In writing the article, general scientific and special methods of research of physical and economic phenomena on the functioning and strategy of development of the fuel and energy complex of the state were used. Results of the investigation. As a result of writing the article, it is established that the lack of reliable metering, the presence of a significant number of consumers for whom fuel bills are charged on a consolidated basis, the inability to effectively control the quality of natural gas do not reduce corruption risks that may occur in calculations and balancing gas market at different levels of the поhierarchical structure of gas transmission and gas distribution systems. The creation of intelligent energy and natural gas metering systems, in particular in Ukraine today, is in its infancy. Accordingly, it hinders the development of the natural gas market in Ukraine, does not ensure fair and equitable pricing, complicates the compilation of energy balances of economic entities and further analysis of the efficiency of this fuel in comparison with other energy sources. Field of application of results. Housing and communal services, gas distribution organizations, gas transportation company, strategic management and planning, metrology. Conclusions. By signing the Association Agreement with the EU, our state has ensured the harmonization of its own ...
