Energy efficiency and energy intensity are the basis of today's economic and social significance. The terms
energy efficiency and energy intensity are used to assess the use of energy resources, but differ in their meanings,
methodology, and application. This article analyzes the importance of energy efficiency (ES) and energy intensity (EI) in
industrial enterprises and the factors affecting them, fixed capital investments (AKI), the volume of product production
in industrial enterprises (SMX), the volume of energy consumption in industrial enterprises (EX), and the volume of
production of renewable energy sources (QTE) using econometric statistics, and presents forecast values of energy
intensity for the future period.
