The paper examines data on electricity consumption in the Russian regions for the period from 1990 to 2020. The main attention is paid to the dynamics of this indicator, including its calculation per capita. As a result of the analysis, parallels between the change in the socio-economic situation in the country, as well as the migration of the population in the regions and electricity consumption are established. One of the main findings of the study is that over the past decades, regional differentiation in electricity consumption has increased significantly, especially if we consider this indicator per capita. This indicates the growing socio-economic stratification of regions in Russia. To achieve the goals set, the work used such methods of processing statistical data as tabular and graphical analysis, as well as methods of general scientific knowledge, including analysis and synthesis. The results of the study can be used to assess the socio-economic development of the regions, as well as to draw up plans for the creation of a generating and electric grid infrastructure in the country. The results obtained are an important and relevant contribution to the study of the problems of electricity consumption in Russia and can be used for further research in this area.
