Optimization of the structure and content of regional government programs aimed at the development of alternative energy

One of the key factors for the successful introduction of alternative energy to energy systems is the formation of an effective regulatory framework and government support systems. Specialized government programs for the development of alternative energy are one of the most common instruments that combine legal regulation and economic incentives. In addition to federal programs, in federative states where the climatic and social characteristics may differ significantly between regions, regional government programs of development are also adopted. In federations with a high degree of autonomy of a region these programs complement the legal regulation by regional laws, and in countries with a low degree of autonomy such programs are often the main source of control in the hands of regional authorities. Due to the fact that the federated states of the Russian Federation are diverse in terms of climate, social, economic and other indicators that are significant for the regulation of renewable energy, regional government programs of individual regions of the Russian Federation are suitable as material for studying this method of by-law regulation of renewable energy. The aim of the study was to formulate a list of recommendations for composition of the optimal structure and content of the regional government program. The main research methods were the comparative legal method and the method of analysis and synthesis. Analysis of the experience in policies of incentives for the introduction of renewable energy in regional government programs resulted in a number of conclusions and practical recommendations on improvement of the structure and content of such programs, as well as on the procedure for their passing and signing.
