Аннотация

Ensuring the reliable and safe operation of the unified energy system of Russia and technologically isolated territorial power systems, the energy security of the industry, as well as the priority of life and health of employees of organizations of the electric power industry when operating electric power facilities and power receivers are among the basic principles of state regulation and control in the electric power industry. Without state energy supervision and development of the necessary regulatory framework, it is impossible to achieve the goals of reliability and safety regulation in the electric power industry, to fully implement the principles of state regulation and control in the electric power industry, as well as the fundamentals of the state sectoral policy. The article examines the process of evolution of statutory regulation of state energy supervision in the electric power industry, highlights the key changes in state supervision after the adoption of normative legal acts as part of the reform of control and supervisory activities, and considers the priority tasks of the development of legal regulation of state energy supervision.

I. Significance of Federal State Energy Supervision in the Electric Power Industry

2 Ensuring the reliable and safe operation of the UES of Russia and technologically isolated territorial power systems, the energy security of the industry, as well as the priority of life and health of employees of organizations of the electric power industry when operating electric power industry facilities and power receivers are among the basic principles of state regulation and control in the electric power industry.
3 According to clause 2 of Article 20 of Federal Law No. 35-FZ on the Electric Power Industry dated March 26, 2003 (hereinafter referred to as the Federal Law On the Electric Power Industry), federal state energy supervision (hereinafter referred to as state energy supervision) is one of the methods of state regulation and control applied in the electric power industry.
4 Along with the adoption of regulatory legal acts establishing requirements for ensuring the reliability of electric power systems, the reliability and safety of electric power facilities and power receivers and ensuring the quality of electric power, and security clearance in the electric power industry, state energy supervision also refers to measures of state regulation of reliability and safety in the electric power industry aimed at ensuring its sustainable, reliable and safe operation and preventing emergencies related to the operation of electric power facilities and power installations of electric power consumers.
5 Historically, state energy supervision has occupied a special place in the system of public supervisory authorities responsible for ensuring energy security not only of the fuel and energy sector, but also of the country as a whole. Consistent work on the development of normative legal acts in the electric power industry has resulted in a well-established system of state supervision over the safety of electric power facilities and power receivers.
6 Nevertheless, the issue of permanent development of regulatory support for state energy supervision has not lost its relevance.
7 One of the main objectives of the Federal Service for Environmental, Technological and Nuclear Supervision (hereinafter referred to as Rostekhnadzor) for the near future is the improvement of activities for the implementation of state control (supervision) functions and the improvement of statutory regulation in the established field of activity, which also includes the implementation of state energy supervision [1].
8 At the present stage of development of the electric power industry, the supervisory authorities are also working to promote good faith compliance with and explanation of mandatory requirements, to create a common understanding of mandatory requirements, to eliminate conditions, causes and factors that can lead to violations of mandatory requirements and (or) harm (damage) to legally protected values [2].
9 It should be noted that without an effective system of state energy supervision and continuous development of the necessary regulatory framework, it is impossible to achieve the goals of reliability and safety regulation in the electric power industry, to fully implement the principles of state regulation and control in the electric power industry, as well as the fundamentals of the state sectoral policy. The need for a developed system of state energy supervision became particularly acute at the time of reforming UES of Russia RJSC and establishing separate organizations for electric power generation, transmission, and sale [3].
10 Thus, the relevance of the research topic is determined by the importance of quality regulation of state energy supervision in the electric power industry.
11 Issues of legal support of state energy supervision are not sufficiently considered in science. The last thesis research on the legal regulation of supervisory activities in ensuring the safety of the electric power industry was conducted 10 years ago [4]. Since then, the problems of statutory regulation of state energy supervision have been dealt with in a fragmentary manner in scientific publications. However, due to the reform of control and supervisory activities, they require reconsideration [5]. At the same time, the development of legal regulation in the energy sector, including state regulation and control, is becoming more and more relevant for energy law, as rightly noted in modern scientific literature [6].
12 The purpose of this study is to consider the evolution of the process of statutory regulation of state energy supervision in the electric power industry from the post-Soviet period to the introduction and implementation of the risk-based approach, as well as to highlight the main changes in state supervision after the adoption of regulatory legal acts as part of the reform of control and supervisory activities, to review the priority tasks of the development of legal support for the implementation of state energy supervision in the electric power industry.
