Abstract
This study provides an overview and conducts a thorough analysis of
the current state and development trends of the energy sector in a
competitive electricity market in Russia. It scrutinises and outlines the
most probable scenarios and outcomes of the innovative development
on the electricity market and describes the possible changes.
Moreover, a comprehensive study of technology foresight methods
that allows one to draw parametric models of the development in the
technological industry is undertaken. The results indicate that, in the
medium- and long-run, one can identify economic inefficiency and
uncontrollability of the existing Russian energy sector as well a clear
disharmony with the selected energy strategy. Thence, it is necessary
to rely on economic innovations in order to develop predictive
models for managing productive development of the industry in a
competitive energy market
