The need to provide heat, hot water and electricity are the basic needs of society, and throughout the history of mankind, they form the greatest demand for energy resources. In the modern world, energy consumption by countries all over the world is constantly increasing; it’s creating new problems such as lack of energy resources, their rise in price, depletion of energy sources, environmental threats, and others. In connection with the problem of saving, rational and efficient use of energy resources and huge energy losses in the construction industry, this article considers world experience of application of energy-saving technologies and other measures to improve energy efficiency, analyzes the current situation in the field of energy saving in Russia. Prerequisites to the study of energy efficiency problems are considered, state of energy consumption and energy saving in China, USA, some EU countries and Russia is analyzed, the world experience of application ways of energy efficiency improving at the state level is considered. The problems and historical background that hinder the development of Russia in the field of energy saving are discussed. Specific proposals to improve energy efficiency in Russia have been put forward based on an analysis of international experience.
