Abstract

Energy park (EP) in Russia and enterprises of the Energy sector provides more than a half of economic potential in the country at the same time making the main contribution to the environmental pollution.

One of the foreground problems is the problem of atmospheric emissions of harmful substances while producing heat and electricity from organic fuels.

This investigation was stimulated by evident drawbacks in evaluating quality of nature conservation measures based on quantity of picked up pollutants. Investigationwas devoted to rationalization and development of a complex method for regulation of air-technogenic influence from EP enterprises in the region, which allows to optimize technological processes based on the criteria of ecological safety.

As a result of this research an idea of eco-metric characteristics of this method led to quantitative data for different types of fuel used for energy production and allows to evaluate ecological efficiency of measures on decreasing atmospheric emissions.

In this study ecological-economic point was established and formula for calculation of level of technology air-technogenic risk was provided. This enables work on rank of enterprises by this level.

The proposed complex method for regulating impacts of EP enterprises applied to design energy strategy in the region and adopted for realization of policy for resource saving and environmental protection at the big EP enterprises.
