Abstract
The main reasons for the high energy consumption of residential multi-apartment buildings in Russia are the lack of motivation of developers in the construction and equipment of new buildings with a high energy efficiency class, as well as the insufficient number of energy metering devices. The main solution to the problem may be state support for energy-efficient technologies, compensation for excessive costs of the developer.
Highlights
The purpose of this article is to identify the main reasons for high energy consumption in multi-family residential buildings (MRB) in Russia and suggest ways to improve the energy efficiency of buildings.The main basic indicators for energy accounting in the residential sector in Russia are the Specific consumption of heat and electricity per 1 square meter per year
The main reasons for the high energy consumption of residential multi-apartment buildings in Russia are the lack of motivation of developers in the construction and equipment of new buildings with a high energy efficiency class, as well as the insufficient number of energy metering devices
Significant effect of saving energy resources in the residential sector is achieved by introducing technologies with high energy efficiency. Such technologies are used in the construction of MRB with higher energy efficiency classes and in the reconstruction of existing housing stock: installation of thermal insulation of enclosing structures, energy-efficient equipment with metering devices of energy resources, installation of automated remote collection of resource consumption indicators, installation of Individual Heat Point (IHP) with automatic weather control of the temperature of the coolant, etc
Summary
The purpose of this article is to identify the main reasons for high energy consumption in multi-family residential buildings (MRB) in Russia and suggest ways to improve the energy efficiency of buildings. The main basic indicators for energy accounting in the residential sector in Russia are the Specific consumption of heat and electricity per 1 square meter per year. Thermal energy consumption refers to the cost of energy for heating and hot water supply. Electrical energy consumption refers to the cost of lighting and the operation of various household appliances. They includes the cost of transporting energy, which in the case of thermal energy can reach 20% (10 % on average in Russia) of the actual cost of the building [1]. The main goal is to show the reasons for such high consumption and suggest solutions
