Abstract: The subject of this research is the influence of the aggravated international situation and crisis economic phenomena upon the energy complex of the Russian Federation. On one hand, there had emerged a number of new threats to the energy security of the Russian Federation, which carry foreign policy and foreign economic character.

The article analyzes the costs of research and development in the Russian Federation, including comparative characteristics in relation to the country's GDP. To identify the research potential, the general structure of organizations performing scientific research and development by sector of activity in the Russian Federation was presented. Analysis of the sources of financing has made it possible to determine the prevailing influence of the public sector, while in the advanced economies, industrial enterprises are the "locomotive" of development. The application of research results is possible at the level of the formation of a scientific and practical basis for determining critical points in the development of the research complex of Russia.
