However, today, due to the difficult economic situation, it, like other directions of the national economy, is experiencing an unfavourable period. The issue of studying and implementing international experience in Ukrainian realities is an urgent one, which will make it possible to unlock the potential of energy service development in Ukraine.
Methods. The study used materials of professional publications, normative and legal acts on the formation of energy services market. The systematic approach, analytical method, methods of comparative analysis and modelling were used to solve the tasks.
Results. The statistics of energy service development in countries such as China, France, England and Germany were analysed in the paper. The international and national publications were also analyzed. The specifics of the development of energy-saving activities in the countries of the European Union (EU) were presented, as well as an overview of the main legislative provisions both at EU level and by country. Along with best practices, previous stages of market formation in Ukraine are analysed, obstacles to the development of energy services were identified.
