Business programme

The green development of the Russian construction industry is a top priority of the country’s state policy. The first designs of multi-unit apartment buildings are being developed based on Russia’s national green standards, while the number of domestic manufacturers of energy efficient equipment, technologies, and materials is on the rise. Sustainable development principles also apply to wooden housing construction. Standardization processes are needed throughout the entire life cycle of individual housing construction to reduce the carbon footprint. What prospects exist for the development of green construction? What are the benefits of green construction for the state, developers, and the public? Are there ways to reduce the cost of green building solutions? What state support measures are needed for green construction? What prospects are there for the use of energy efficient technologies and materials for multi-unit apartment buildings and private housing construction projects? What problems can be solved by standardizing and introducing green technologies in construction?
