Abstract

The subject of the study is energy facilities, which are among the largest pollutants of atmospheric air due to the growth of housing construction and increased traffic load on the urban street and road network. In turn, the correct assessment of environmental pollution currently and in the future depends on decision-making on the technical renovation of energy facilities. The purpose of the work is to establish alternative methods for the economic assessment of environmental pollution from the activities of energy facilities and alternative tools for protecting the biosphere, which prevents harm (damage) to living organisms from emissions of harmful substances. The article considers indicators that allow comprehensively characterizing the environmental situation in the region, including the regional index of anthropogenic transformation; anthropogenic pressure coefficient; level of environmental tension; ergodemographic index; coefficient of natural protection. The options for the economic assessment of damage from atmospheric air pollution are given. The result of the work was the development of proposals to improve existing methods of economic assessment of environmental harm (damage) from emissions of harmful substances due to the mandatory inclusion in the calculation of a coefficient that takes into account regional characteristics and population density. It is concluded that the procedure proposed in the article for assessing the damage caused to the environment by emissions of harmful substances can be applied at the forecasting stage during the period of immutability of technological processes occurring at energy facilities.
