Abstract: This paper examines the problem of electricity supply to remote sparsely populated areas of Russia, where several tens of millions of people face difficulties in accessing electricity. The reasons are analysed, including low population density, geographical remoteness and lack of centralised power supply, resulting in high tariffs and periodic outages. As a solution, the introduction of autonomous hybrid energy systems is proposed, which can significantly reduce the cost of electricity and increase the stability of the power supply. An example of a successful pilot project in Mensa village, Zabaikalsky Krai, is given, where autonomous hybrid power plants provided residents with high-quality electricity without interruptions. The objectives of the study are: to identify the main problems of electricity supply in remote settlements, to assess the efficiency of the introduction of autonomous hybrid energy systems, and to develop recommendations for the modernisation of energy infrastructure. The research methods include analysing statistical data on electricity supply, as well as studying successful practices of introducing autonomous systems in other regions. The work emphasises the need for an integrated approach to solving current problems in remote regions of Russia, offering innovative solutions that can improve the quality of life of the local population and contribute to the sustainable development of these territories.
