Energy-saving technologies in civil engineering of the Chechen Republic

The existing methods and technologies of energy saving in civil engineering in the conditions of the Chechen Republic are considered. It is revealed that the main limitations of the energy-saving technologies and materials integration in construction are related to its cost increase. In this regard, methods of encouragement from government structures, government support of developers, financial programs, reduced taxation and other financial instruments should play the key role. It is proposed to use the alternative energy sources such as solar energy and deep Earth heat energy as an active energy saving system in the Chechen Republic. Developments in converting the city of Grozny districts to heating using the Khankalskoye field thermal waters have been known since the 1980s and seem to be very effective, as they do not require high costs for implementation.
