The objectives of the study is to analyze the status and trends of development of industrial enterprises-consumers of energy resources, implementing a policy of energy saving, analysis of management practices of energy consumption using energy service contracts and the development of a conceptual model of the organization of management energy consumption of industrial enterprises using energy service contracts. Application of the proposed conceptual model of the energy cost management for industrial enterprise defines a comprehensive approach to energy management, taking into account the implementation of the mechanism of modern energy service contracts.

Abstract. In the modern world one can notice considerable rates of the increase in quantity and size of the large cities which have received the general name reflecting their key characteristics -they are named megalopolises. The directions of the enhancement of the processes of the heating systems maintenance in the modern urban environment in its constant development are considered in the article. The author determines the directions of the technical-and-economic analysis of the maintenance of this type of facilities in the urban environment, which will allow filling the gap between the level of maintenance properties of the heating systems, demanded in the modern conditions, and the actual level. Some methodical provisions of carrying out the technical-and-economic analysis of the heating systems operation, which complex nature provides the objective assessment of the essential factors action during their functions completion within the urban environment, are suggested.

Abstract. The maintenance of materials and structures of the underground space in modern cities which contains many engineering structures is considered in the article. It is claimed on the example of quantitative data that the underground structures exert a great influence on the ecological situation of the city. The matters of the research included the analysis of the main heating systems as the most responsible city structure; the conclusions obtained can be also used for smaller heat pipelines. The article includes the comparisons of modern technical methods of diagnostics of materials and heating systems structures according to the results of experiment, as well as the characteristic of norms of control of the materials condition at the stages of construction and maintenance applied in the developed countries. On this basis, the author has developed and presented a system of diagnostics taking into account the alternation of measures during the heating period as well as the season when heat supply is not required. For an effective ecological management in modern cities, it is suggested to create the automated data base of materials and structures of the heating systems on the basis of the developed scheme of their conditions and events, which needs to be used for forecasting of environmental risks and planning of recovery works with consideration of special features of the maintenance processes. The direction of the further research is defined: it is the expansion of the stated approaches on other types of underground communications in modern cities.

Abstract. The retrospective analysis of the results of activities at the level of industrial sector of the Russian economy in general and at the level of certain subjects of economy -the enterprise of construction materials and products is completed in the article. According to the analysis results the insufficient efficiency of the use of cumulative resource capacity of the enterprises is proved and the need of the development of complex tools of resource providing management, to which the priority attention is caused by the crisis of economy requiring taking measures to diversification of a range of construction materials and products of the construction offered by the enterprise for the markets, is determined. In the core of the offered tools of management there are approaches of "ramp-up" of the management directed to the maximum concentration of resources of the enterprise in case of new products launch for the construction industry. Three options of financing of production, based on the choice of a ratio of loan and own sources of means are considered. Some conditions of macroeconomic nature, which are important for effective development of the enterprises involved in production of construction materials and products are determined in the conclusion.
