“…Technological advances have opened a myriad of new business opportunities for mobile operators worldwide [12]. It is possible to develop digital platforms serving peer-to-peer (P2P) sharing activity, called sharing caused by consumer habit changes [13]. Sharing platforms optimise the use of available resources [14].…”

The new phenomenon called sharing or collaborative consumption emerged a decade ago and is continuously growing. It creates new possibilities for society, and especially for business, is beneficial for the environment, makes more efficient use of resources, and presents a new competitive business model. The scientific literature lacks a more in-depth analysis of the factors influencing sharing activity growth; therefore, the paper’s authors attempt to fill this gap. The authors aim to identify the factors affecting the use of sharing platforms. To reach the goal, the authors developed a regression model and constructed a list of 71 variables. The study used monthly United States data from January 2017 to June 2020 from the publicly available Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED)and Google trends databases. The comparison to other indexes proves that the proposed index, representing the number of visits to sharing platforms (SEP), is a unique one. The first index allowed us to revise the sharing activity monthly. The authors identified that variables such as wage level, social network users, import level, and personal consumption are critical in affecting the number of visits to sharing platforms. The presented framework could be helpful for practitioners and policymakers analysing the stimulation of sharing or collaborative consumption. It includes indicators representing different areas, such as society, technology, and country, and allows for monthly investigations. Such activity was evident for a long time when online platforms contributed to its wider accessibility. The results help to forecast the number of visits monthly. Sharing is still an emerging area for research; thus, the authors tried to explore the phenomenon of sharing to expand the conceptual level of knowledge.

“…At the same time, it should be noted that following the development of the Internet, its impact on the connection between the fixed-line market, the mobile phone market and the cable TV market is becoming more intense. Also new telecommunications products, ranging from unique innovations resulting from multi-site advanced technological research, to modifications of existing ones, are emerging [11]. In consequence it leads to: − increase in the share of data transmission in the activity of fixed-line market and the mobile phone market, − increase in the share of voice transmission in the activity of cable TV market, − growing fields of fixed-line market activities overlap with the mobile phone market activities as well as with the cable TV market activities.…”

Telecom operators specialize in the provision of information and communication (IC) services. For a long time they have the potential to provide traditional services, including voice and text messages, which are being constantly improved, primarily due to the progress in information and communication technologies (ICT). The progress in ICT and the offer of IC services in recent years is related to the implementation and development of Internet. In consequence the traditional offer of IC services is extended by innovative services enabling the transmission of voice, data and images. At the same time, these services are starting to be provided not only by telecom operators but also by other entities, in particular the so-called Over The Top (OTT) operators, including Google, Facebook, Amazon etc.

“…The implementation of the national energy policy is a part of the state interest. The national energy policy (like other sectoral policies [1]) should meet political, economic, and social goals of the state and those of its citizens. The form of energy regulation varies greatly depending on the form of government and regime.…”

Nowadays, while cities are often subject to research in terms of their development, especially smart development, studies on rural areas are rare. However, the development of the latter is very important. It is important that rural areas develop economically and socially. Smart villages are a challenge for the modern energy sector. The authors of the article try to answer the question: What are the challenges for the modern energy sector in the context of rural development? The aim of this article is to identify challenges for the modern power industry in the concept of smart countryside development. The article begins with the presentation of the essence of smart villages and the essence of energy policy. The research facilitated the identification of basic challenges that prevent or slow down the development of the smart villages in terms of modern energy solutions, as perceived by experts and residents, and farmers and entrepreneurs operating in rural areas. The article identifies a number of energy challenges in the context of a smart village. They include, among others, a lack of awareness regarding the impact of energy on the environment, a low level of public knowledge about new energy solutions, and a lack of social trust in modern energy solutions in rural areas. The research was conducted in rural areas in the north-western part of Poland. At the end, the article presents a model of rural development in the context of the modern energy sector. The research also allowed the creation of a smart village development model that focuses on smart economy, intelligent environment, intelligent people, and intelligent governance. Since these are universal solutions, they can be used as a proposition for other countries.
