The article focuses on the nature, content and interconnection between the main categories of the energy services market. The purpose of the research paper is to substantiate theoretical and applied aspects of developing the energy services market and put forward proposals for their further implementation into practice in Ukraine. Based on a systematic analysis and methods of analysis and synthesis it is proved that efficiency, viewed as an economic, technical and technological category, is an essential factor in the sustainable growth of the national economy. It is pointed out that increasing energy efficiency is linked with energy modernization in the basic sectors of Ukraine’s national economy as well as the application of brand new technologies, non-conventional and renewable energy sources, which can be implemented in the framework of market relations. The energy services market may serve as an organizational, economic and institutional form of such relations The research paper highlights the essence and content of the main categories of the energy services market: energy services, market structure and its basic characteristics, market actors and their interaction. The concept of an efficient industry market is applied for theoretical rationalizing of market structure and its basic features, which makes it possible to identify interdependence between all its components and address the peculiarities of energy services. It is found that the basic terms of supply in the market of energy services are limited due to the imperfection of the institutional and economic environment. The basic conditions of demand are characterized by high price elasticity on personal income and contradiction of behavior depending on the government’s social policy and costs of fuel and energy resources. High elasticity of demand and lack of substitute services result in the impossibility of developing a clear pricing strategy and affect the efficiency of market actors. The market structure is characterized by a high level of market barriers, caused by the peculiarities of providing energy services, which require the availability of high-tech equipment, special mechanisms, highlyskilled personnel, and the availability of a license. It is emphasized that market behavior is a marketing complex that requires flexibility in choosing a pricing strategy, advertising products, market research, engineering and technology research, and service delivery. Institutional provision requires an adequate state policy and informal imperatives of civil society in the field of energy efficiency of the national economy. The scheme of interaction between actors of the market of energy services is developed and functional interrelations between them in business operations are defined.

The technical component of knowledge management in organizational and technical systems in various fields, as well as in military formations and law enforcement agencies has not been investigated. In order to find the key characteristics of a comprehensive knowledge management model in organizational and technical systems, the main actions with knowledge and directions of implementation, realizing the recently developed knowledge management models, have been examined. There is provided to add a technical component to the model of explicit knowledge management in organizational and technical systems, implemented by the information and telecommunication system, the server of which is located, for example, in the research institution, the modeller or the educational institution. All components of the model of explicit knowledge management in organizational and technical systems accomplish acquiring of explicit knowledge from the knowledge management system in the organizational and technical systems or, if necessary, providing of explicit and implicit knowledge to the knowledge management system in organizational and technical systems. Implementation of the proposed explicit knowledge management model in organizational and technical systems is suggested to be implemented using the ontological approach of knowledge formalization and consideration. Thus, a combination of syntactic and semantic search is used, that is, the search is performed in instances of ontology, taking into account their semantic characteristic and connections.
