The use of energy-saving technologies in the overhaul and reconstruction of buildings

The purpose of this paper is to develop mechanisms to improve the efficiency of reconstruction and overhaul of buildings based on the use of energy-saving technologies. As a result of the study, ways have been developed to increase the efficiency of reconstruction and overhaul based on energy conservation, including legal regulation, institutional and organizational development, technical and information support for energy conservation measures as part of the overhaul and reconstruction of residential and public buildings. A method has been formed for the selection and assessment of the efficiency of energy-saving technological solutions, taking into account both technical and economic criteria, which allows assessing the long-term sustainability of investment projects for the implementation of energy-saving measures and determining the necessary degree of government participation in investment

Assessment of the impact of transport energy costs on the efficiency of public-private partnership projects

The subject of ensuring the efficiency of public-private partnership projects in the road industry in terms of fuel consumption by vehicles is considered. It is concluded that the valuation of transport energy costs has a significant impact on the efficiency of projects. It is noted that the budget, commercial, and social efficiency of projects will significantly depend on the value of transport energy costs. Using the example of one of the road sections, the structure of economic effect for users is determined. The current trends in the development of innovative transport in Russia (the use of electric vehicles, self-driving vehicles, gas engine vehicles) are considered, and the possible impact of the use of such vehicles on project efficiency is determined. It is noted that the main indicators that determine the efficiency of projects (demand, competitiveness, tariff policy, revenue stream and others) will be affected. The value of this impact will largely be determined by the response of users who will adapt to changing conditions. Possible strategies for adaptation of users in the context of large-scale introduction of innovative transport into the economy: increased or decreased car use, change of departure time, use of alternative routes, switching to other modes of transport, etc. Accounting for this change in behavior is necessary to ensure the efficiency of public-private partnership projects in the road industry

Quality 4.0. Time of revolutionary changes in the QMS

The article examines the tendencies and prospects for constructing adaptive mechanisms for the functioning of active systems, taking into account the influence of the tendencies of the fourth industrial revolution, called “Industry 4.0”, on the quality management system of enterprises. The main components of “Industry 4.0” is the global digitalization of all enterprise processes, including management processes, which makes the process of creating learning mechanisms of functioning (MFF) of active systems, which are able to improve their functioning over time, considered relevant. The described construction of the GFM is based on the use of learning processes carried out using probabilistic iterative (recurrent) algorithms. These algorithms make it possible, as a result of processing current information, to make up for the lack of a priori data and, ultimately, to achieve the best, from a certain point of view, performance indicators

On the application of the thermal conductivity equation to describe the diffusion process

The paper addresses the very popular issue of diffusion of innovations. Diffusion of innovations is the last stage of the innovation process and an indicator of its success. The study of the diffusion of innovations and the application of heat conduction equations in this theory is related to the study of innovative characteristics and economic indicators that could improve the performance of enterprises, lead to profit growth and expand market coverage. The paper systematized the factors that influence the diffusion of innovations. With their help, it is possible to manage the process of diffusion of innovations in a specific market and in a certain period of time. The use of the theory and methods for solving the thermal conductivity equation allows obtaining a solution to the problem of the diffusion equation, finding the optimal parameters for creating an innovative product susceptibility on the market
