Importance In recent years, Russia pays great attention to the issues of energy efficiency, both at State level and within the scientific community. The first federal law on energy conservation was adopted in Russia in 1996, and in 1998 it launched the first federal program aimed at energy conservation and improving the energy efficiency. From 1995 to 2013 in Russia, there were elaborated and adopted at the governmental level three energy strategies, highlighting various aspects of the energy efficiency of the economy, more than 260 regional legal acts in the sphere of energy saving and energy efficiency, as well as the Federal Law of November 23, 2009 № 261-FZ "On energy conservation and energy efficiency and On amendments to some legislative acts of the Russian Federation". Despite this, energy efficiency in Russia remains lower than in developed countries, so research in this area remain relevant. Objectives The purpose of the article is a study of the impact of technological progress on energy efficiency in industry and in transport by cross-correlation and regression analysis. Conclusions and Relevance As a result of the research, we can conclude that the cost of technological innovation by industry in 1998-2011 was mostly without taking into account the requirements for energy efficiency. The processes of modernization in transport, in total, have been implemented primarily through the purchase of imported equipment and vehicles, which had a positive impact on the energy efficiency of vehicles, but had no impact on improving the energy efficiency of rail transport and pipeline transport. The results and conclusions can be used to develop programs to improve the energy efficiency of industrial production of different level: from those ones of individual enterprises and organizations to federal and industry programs.
