Energy management strategy in the construction industry

Abstract

Saving energy resources is the first priority of the world community. In modern society, construction industry has a huge impact on the economic, social and technological environment of human life. New architectural forms and concepts are emerging, building materials and technologies are improving, environmental friendliness and friendliness of buildings to the surrounding nature increases. Currently, issues related to improvement of the economy’s energy efficiency are attracting everyone’s attention. Projects of energy-saving and energy-active houses are becoming increasingly popular. Existing construction regulations originate in the 70-90s of the last century, and do not reflect modern reality. Another important aspect of the introduction of modern technology is the environmental pressure during construction and installation works. It raises a question about the need to develop economically and technically sound standards in the design and organization of construction, compliance with which would be monitored not only at the stage of project documentation, but also during the building process. The study addressed the issues of energy consumption reduction at the construction design and maintenance stages, during building and installation works, as well as in sanitary, technical and material support of construction production.
