Abstract: The article is devoted to the development of effective principles of providing subsidies for energy consumption to the population in need of social protection. The current situation in our republic has been studied and a scientific theoretical methodology has been created based on the results of the theoretical and practical analyzes conducted by scientists and international strategic actions regarding this problem. The population is divided into 4 strata and their level of electricity consumption and use of subsidies is explained on a mathematical basis. Conclusions on the provision of subsidies have been made with theoretical analysis and allow to increase the price of electricity by 2 times and reduce the amount of subsidies by almost 2 times according to the principle that the payment for electricity of poor families will remain unchanged. Based on the principle of determination based on the specified share of family income, the possibility of subsidizing the amount of electricity not exceeding 5% of the family income is explained.
