У статті виділено перспективні галузі економіки країни, зроблено акцент на найбільш розвинуту ланку машино-
будування – електротехнічну промисловість. Підкреслено значення подальшого розвитку електротехнічної промисловості,
розглянуто її вплив на соціально-економічне середовище країни. За базовими напрямами проаналізовано динаміку розвитку
основних секторів машинобудування, визначено лідируючий розвиток сектору, орієнтованого на виробництво електрич-
ного устаткування. Враховуючі світові тенденції розвитку ринку світлотехніки, підкреслено сприятливі умови розвитку
підприємств з виробництва електричного освітлювального устаткування.
The article highlights the promising sectors of the economy of the country, focuses on the most developed link of mechanical
engineering - the electrical industry. The importance of the further development of the electrical industry was emphasized, its impact
on the socio-economic environment of the country was considered. The basic areas analyzed the dynamics of the development of the
main sectors of engineering, determined the leading development of the sector focused on the production of electrical equipment.
Given the global trends in the development of the lighting market, the favorable conditions for the development of enterprises for the
production of electric lighting equipment are emphasized. The purpose of the article is to emphasize the importance, definition of the
current state, directions of development of the country's electrical engineering industry as one of the most promising sectors of the
economy and the sub-sector of mechanical engineering, and to identify the main factors influencing its development. Electrotechnical
industry is one of the main components of mechanical engineering, which belongs to the most promising industries of the country.
Given the fact that there is no real strategy for the development of either the electrotechnical industry, nor the domestic machine
building as a whole, and the fact that government funding is directed at supporting only state-owned enterprises, it is necessary to
emphasize the following: the main role in the breakthrough development of a promising sector of the economy belongs to enterprises
- subjects economic activity, their ability and motivation to make optimal use of their economic potential, competitive position and
market challenges. Taking into account the forecast of the dynamics of development of the world market of light engineering,
comprehensive economic support of domestic enterprises for the production of electrical equipment is needed - this should be an
important task for the economic bloc of the government. First of all, it concerns the development of state programs aimed at
supporting progressive sub-sectors of mechanical engineering, which, of course, belongs to the electrotechnical industry.
