In the developing world, traditional forms of energy are rapidly eradicated, and contribute freely to global concerns such as waste exposure and dangerous deviations in an environment. So, it is required to develop and used renewable or humorous energy resources for future. Every month, a huge amount of waste is generated and becomes the part of landfill or sent to less developed areas, and sometimes left untreated. It has significant environmental consequences for biological systems, and human well-being. Due to this, numerous new waste disposal plants have emerged and developed to generate energy from garbage dumps. Large amount of trash created each day for landfills causes numerous critical ecological effects. Various new approaches are accessible for changing waste materials into energy sources, going from exceptionally straightforward frameworks of discarding waste to more perplexing advancements fit. Waste can be converted into energy by using three possible strategies such as thermochemical, biochemical, and chemical changes. This article explores the impact of waste on environment, and how waste can be used to generate energy.

Waste Accumulation

The article examines the actual topic of collecting environmental tax on waste disposal. As enterprises of different sectors of the economy work to meet the diverse needs of the population of our planet, this leads to the formation of a huge amount of waste that needs to be disposed of. The means that can somewhat restrain the process of waste accumulation and environmental degradation is the collection of environmental tax. The views of various scientists on the impact of environmental taxation on the incentives of environmental taxpayers to use the latest waste-free technologies and make environmentally constructive changes in production technology are considered. Factors that negatively affect environmental pollution during waste disposal and coefficients used in calculating the environmental tax are considered. For example, if the waste is placed within a settlement or at a distance of less than 3 kilometers from such boundaries, the coefficient used in calculating the environmental tax is 3. Situations when economic entities are payers of the environmental tax on waste disposal are considered. The definition of the term "waste disposal" is investigated. Attention is drawn to the fact that according to the tax legislation, waste disposal is considered to be exclusively permanent (final) stay or disposal of waste in places that are specially designated for this purpose, or at facilities (storage facilities, landfills, etc.). The use of such sites or facilities must be authorized by the authorities. If economic entities carry out only temporary disposal of waste, then such economic entities are not payers of environmental tax. However, representatives of the state tax service sometimes provide clarification that businesses that have only temporarily disposed of waste must also pay an environmental tax, as stated in these explanations. Given this, the article proposes amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine, aimed at protecting the interests of those businesses that only temporarily dispose of waste. Some aspects of environmental tax accounting are considered.

In this article, the grades of different kinds of energy sources are distinguished. Thus, we put forward an equivalent electric calculation method, which is compliant with the calculation of various energy resources that have different grades. Based on this aspect, we empirically analyzed the influence of industrial structure changing on energy consumption structure by analyzing panel data in 30 provinces of China from 2003 to 2013. Results showed that the calculated results of equivalent electric calculation method were more accurate because it considered the difference in grades between various energy sources. Industrial structure changing had a significant impact on energy consumption structure. The upgrading and rationalization of the industrial structure had a significant promotion on energy structure cleaning. In addition, technological progress was conducive to the clean development of energy structure, the decrease in energy price boosted energy structure cleaning, and the impact of economic level on energy consumption structure was not significant.

This paper presents a detailed survey of global energy delivery and smart grid approaches. Particularly in the sense that shows the impacts on the production of energy resources globally. How can energy losses be reduced, primarily by implementing smart grid approaches? Power transfers and reduction of energy sources can be made by smart grids with information technology (I.T) such as sensors digital meters and communication networks.  Energy from photovoltaic and wind power are some of the energy delivery systems that have gained attention since they are cheap and environment-friendly and do not emit greenhouse gas. Presently available grid is insufficient to serve future systems. For this reason, an intelligent grid system is required to support future needs for society. This paper expounds on the impacts of the existing power delivery system and suggests a smart grid for global energy delivery on a better management system.

Abstract The development of civilisation is linked inextricably with growing demand for electricity. Thus, the still-rapid increase in the level of utilisation of natural resources, including fossil fuels, leaves it more and more urgent that conventional energy technologies and the potential of the renewable energy sources be made subject to re-evaluation. It is estimated that last 200 years have seen use made of more than 50% of the available natural resources. Equally, if economic forecasts prove accurate, for at least several more decades, oil, natural gas and coal will go on being the basic primary energy sources. The alternative solution represented by nuclear energy remains a cause of considerable public concern, while the potential for use to be made of renewable energy sources is seen to be very much dependent on local environmental conditions. For this reason, it is necessary to emphasise the impact of research that focuses on the further sharpening-up of energy efficiency, as well as actions aimed at increasing society’s awareness of the relevant issues. The history of recent centuries has shown that rapid economic and social transformation followed on from the industrial and technological revolutions, which is to say revolutions made possible by the development of power-supply technologies. While the 19th century was “the age of steam” or of coal, and the 20th century the era of oil and gas, the question now concerns the name that will at some point come to be associated with the 21st century. In this paper, the subjects of discussion are primary energy consumption and energy resources, though three international projects on the global scale are also presented, i.e. ITER, Hydrates and DESERTEC. These projects demonstrate new scientific and technical possibilities, though it is unlikely that commercialisation would prove feasible before 2050. Research should thus be focused on raising energy efficiency. The development of high-efficiency technologies that reinforce energy security is presented, with it being assumed that these new high-efficiency technologies are capable of being applied globally in the near future.

Appropriate management of energy sources is one of the basic undertakings in the energy sector. Climate policy changes and the development of technologies enabling the acquisition of energy in a way to reduce the negative impact on the natural environment lead to diversity in the structure of the energy sources being used. Therefore, it is important to assess the impact of these changes on the development of energy sectors by particular countries. The article contains the analysis of various energy sources utilization by European Union (EU) countries and the assessment of the energy production sector potential, and the development of this potential in relation to changes in the energy sources structure. For this purpose, a multidimensional comparative analysis was used. The data for the analysis are derived from the Eurostat database for the years 2017 and 2019 for 28 EU countries and they concern the use of energy sources such as combustible fuels, coal and manufactured gases, natural gas, oil and petroleum products (excluding biofuel portion), hydro/hydropower, wind power, solar photovoltaic, nuclear fuels and other fuels n.e.c. As a result of the research, it was proved that in most EU countries the changes introduced in the structure of the use of various energy sources, according to EU climate policy, have a positive impact on the development of particular energy sectors.

One of the main factors in the development of mankind and a necessary means of subsistence is energy production, but there is also a downside – environmental impact. Energy has become a part of a human’s life, production activity, however, the environmental aspect of energy use is becoming no less significant, considering the intensity of the impact. Mankind is actively seeking cleaner energy production and more efficient technologies within its use, which are more economical. It can be noted that the current stage of development is based on the “three pillars”: Energy, Ecology, Economics. A special place is given to the energy sector, since this is the main factor that determines both the environment and the economy. Regarding the economy in this situation, it is possible to talk about the well-being of people and the economic potential of the country. As for ecology, in this direction the negative impact of energy, direct or indirect (production and use) is significant. Here it is about the biosphere as a whole and about the ecosystem. In this context, it is about thermal, radioactive, chemical, aerosol and many other types of pollution. The energy problem is quite acute, the solution of this problem depends on the resolution of both economic and environmental problems. The aim of the article is to analyse the structure of the energy sector in Kazakhstan and determine its impact on the environment with consideration of directions to reduce the negative impact. As part of the study, the role of energy for the state, as well as for ecology, is determined, the modern aspects of energy development in the world are considered, the issue of combating emissions at the international level is also covered, the main international agreements are described to limit the negative impact of energy on the environment. The structure of Kazakhstan’s energy, energy production and emissions are considered. The data were studied in comparison with other countries (USA, China, Germany, Russia), the main problems were identified, and prospects for the development of renewable energy were also considered. The prospects for further research are determined by the subsequent study of the development of energy and its impact on the environment and the prospects for the development of alternative energy. The article is of practical value within data generalisation on the development of energy in Kazakhstan and foreign countries.

The increased demand for energy determines the need to search for its next sources. One of them could be renewable energy sources, whose importance is increasing, among others, due to the limited resources of fossil fuels. In addition, renewable energy production has many benefits, mainly environmental and economic. Moreover, the social aspects associated with it cannot be ignored. The aim of this work was to discuss selected social benefits resulting from the production of renewable energy. Among the most important advantages of renewable energy sources is their local aspect, since energy production solves many regional problems, mainly related to its transport. The issue of energy security is also essential. In the case of biofuel production, the possibility of involving waste in energy production is extremely beneficial. The use of renewable energy itself directly affects the improvement of the environment, which in turn has a positive effect on people. Nowadays, sustainable development is one of the most critical challenges of humanity. These activities are closely related to the use of renewable energy sources. It is important to pay attention not only to subjects related to the environmental and economic aspects but also the impact of renewable energy sources on society.
