Abstract
The history of the formation of the fuel and energy system of Yakutia in the 1920s—1930s is considered, the process of its formation as the basis of the industrial development of the Yakut ASSR is shown. It is noted that, starting with the search and exploration of coal deposits, the process of creating a coal industry in Yakutia only at the end of the 1920s was marked by a transition to the stage of industrial development and coal mining. It is shown that over the next decade, from the first volumes of coal mined at the Sangarsky, Zyryansky, Dzhebariki-Khaisky, Kangalassky deposits, the coal industry of the republic has grown into the main base of its industrial development. It is noted that the main goal of the development of coal deposits was the solution of national economic problems, among which the leading was the creation of conditions for the development of the gold mining industry. It is emphasized that it is no less important to provide coal for sea and river transport, which has gradually turned into the main transport artery for the transportation of goods to the republic. It is indicated that the creation of the coal industry became the basis for the industrial development of the Yakut ASSR. It is concluded that the historical experience of the formation of coal production serves as an example of a planned, integrated approach to the formation of industries in the region
