The article focuses on systems analysis in identifying optimal areas for using distributed energy sources in the agro-industrial complex. Applying a systems approach enables a comprehensive assessment of various aspects of solar energy, wind energy, hydropower systems and integrated power plants that provide autonomous energy supplies. The research methodology includes a functional–structural approach that helps to assess the internal characteristics of systems, allowing for a deeper understanding of their structure and functions. This, in turn, leads to the creation of different models reflecting specific elements and relationships in energy systems. The main point is to take into account the level of functional and structural perfection, which helps to more accurately determine the areas where the introduction of renewable energy sources will be most effective, taking into account the specifics and needs of the agro-industrial complex. This approach not only contributes to a more optimal allocation of resources but also improves the sustainability and efficiency of energy systems in the face of a changing climate and the growing demand for environmental technologies.
