Abstract

Purpose of the article. The main hopes in solving the most acute environmental problems (including resource ones) are pinned today on technological breakthroughs. In recent years, developed countries have reoriented their development towards the implementation of a strategy of environmentally oriented growth, one of the main components of which is «clean technologies». The development of environmental technologies in Russia has great prospects if the plans are implemented, especially given the Russian potential in the development of macro technologies (nuclear power, power equipment, communications, etc.), laser, nano-, biotechnologies, etc. Investments in environmental innovations are growing, including on the part of the Russian business, «development institutions» of the innovative economy are being created.
Materials and methods. The article considers the Angara-Yenisei macroregion in more detail, including innovative projects being developed on its territory, as well as the most promising areas for the development of «clean technologies» that contribute to improving the environmental situation in the region.
Results. Among the most promising areas for the development of «clean technologies» in the Angara-Yenisei macroregion, contributing to the improvement of the environmental situation in the region, are the following: restoration of the activities of environmental authorities: the federal Environmental Fund and environmental funds of the subjects of the Russian Federation; development of scientific and innovative infrastructure of the macroregion; improvement of the mechanism of payments for negative impact on the environment environment; implementation of the practice of financial stimulation of the eco-innovation process; accelerated depreciation of fixed assets of «green» purpose; development of «green» financing instruments; development of highly competitive areas with the use of clean technologies.
Conclusion. It is necessary not only to focus on reducing the dependence of the macroregion on the resource economy, but also to promote the development of highly competitive areas with the use of clean technologies.
