Statistical data are provided, including in the form of diagrams, based on the State Report on the Situation of Energy Conservation and Energy Efficiency Improvement in the Russian Federation in 2020 and 2022, compiled by the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation. The purpose of the research is to identify common features and differences in the approaches of the Russian and Serbian legislators, as well as to determine the legal potential for further international cooperation between the two countries regarding improving the efficiency of energy resources use. Saving energy resources leads to a significant reduction in government spending, stabilization of energy supply and further development of the energy sector, contributing to the development of the entire economy. The specificity of energy efficiency legislation consist in its complex, intersectoral nature, multilevel regulation, the presence of many technical and legal norms, a significant array of departmental rulemaking, the importance of ensuring a reasonable balance of public and private law regulation. International cooperation between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Serbia in the energy sector is actively developing, which actualizes scientific and practical interest in studying the problems of energy conservation in the context of the modern climate agenda and sustainable development goals of the countries of the world.
