Energy security administration of the Republic of Kazakhstan

Abstract

Energy security is a state of security of the country, its citizens, society, state, economy from threats
to reliable fuel and energy supply. These threats are determined both by external (geopolitical, macroeconomic,
conjunctural) factors and by the actual state and functioning of the country’s energy sector.
Energy security is the most important component of the national security of Kazakhstan. Ensuring national
security is one of the main tasks of energy policy. The growth of demand for electricity is influenced
by such factors as population growth, urbanization, electrification of production and life. The demand
for electricity is associated with the growth of the World’s population. With more than a billion people
now without access to electricity worldwide, the efforts of major developing countries will be the main
source of growth in electricity demand in this direction. The aim of the work is to study the theoretical
foundations of energy security and improve the energy security system. The relevance of the topic lies
in the fact that at the present stage of development of society, the regulation of energy security is strategically
important for any economic system. Ensuring and increasing the level of safety of the fuel and
energy complex is conducive to socio-economic development and improving the quality of life of the
population. It is difficult to imagine modern life without heat, light and gas. Normal functioning of the
economy is impossible without it.
