Subject The article discusses the issues of the formulation and implementation of energy conservation policies of constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
Objectives The paper aims to identify the regions of the Russian Federation similar in energy efficiency indicators.
Methods As a methodological basis of the study, we used the techniques of discriminant analysis, Spearman's rank correlation analysis, and Ward’s methods in the package of applied statistical analysis of Statistica 6.0.
Results There are three most important indicators: average cash income per capita per month, energy consumption per capita, and the percentage of energy-intensive industries. We clustered regions of the Russian Federation and specified three groups of subjects of similar energy efficiency indicators.
Relevance The results obtained can be used to generate the energy-efficient State policy that takes into account regional peculiarities.

Keywords: energy efficiency, region, energy-saving policy, differentiated approach
