Subject. The article deals with the security of the fiscal and budgetary system in resource-based regions during highly volatile prices in the global energy market external economic, political, technological and epidemiological shocks. Objectives. The study is to detect hazards in the fiscal and budgetary system of resource-based regions. Such hazards really put the regional competitiveness and economic security at peril. Methods. The article evaluates the security of the fiscal system in the Kemerovo Oblast through the integral indicator and the threshold (critical) value. Results. We found key threats to the fiscal and budgetary system of the Kemerovo Oblast, which undermine the regional competitiveness and economic security. Conclusions and Relevance. Authorities shall comprehensively attempt to create the environment for developing manufacturing sectors in the region, especially science-intensive and high-tech production enterprises by alleviating infrastructure and administrative constraints for business, raising the finance of science and innovation from the State and mobilize investors' resources, lure them to finance prioritized lines of the regional economic development. The findings and conclusions can be used to outline principles of the region's economic policy, socioeconomic development strategies of the region economy.

: The urban water industry is a very energy intensive industry. Higher water quality standards are driving a level of energy growth that is threatening to move it to the top rank. Climate change is further exacerbating this situation: Growing aridity is variously imposing an enhanced carbon burden through water recycling, trans-regional pipelines and desalination plants. Natural disasters too can often affect water quality requiring energy hungry mitigations. There’s clear evidence that a failure to appropriately weight energy considerations in water infrastructure is commonplace and that this is an unsustainable position for the industry and is prejudicial to working towards zero carbon cities. Real time tracking of CO2e emissions is an important starting point in raising operator consciousness and introducing rivalry between utilities in attaining abatement. So too is reaching out to the resource and manufacturing sectors to form strategic alliances as well as seeking to enter into closer relationships with the energy sector.
