This paper examines the theoretical and practical aspects of evaluating green investment projects, with a particular focus on green energy and environmental efficiency criteria. The study identifies key indicators such as carbon emission reduction, energy efficiency, the share of renewable energy sources, and environmental sustainability as essential components of project evaluation. Furthermore, the research analyzes international practices and innovative approaches in assessing green investments and explores their applicability within the context of a national economy. The findings highlight the importance of integrating environmental criteria into investment decision-making processes and demonstrate that green investment evaluation contributes to sustainable economic development and ecological balance.
