Sustainable underground development: innovation and regulation (example of solar transmission systems)

Abstract

The review of features of development of underground space in the large cities of the country and practice of introduction for this purpose of innovations is resulted. The article presents the results of the study, the subject of which is to consider the shortcomings of legal regulation and standardization in the field of transmission of daylight (solar) light under the ground through the use of light guides and other devices. The purpose of this study was to find ways to improve these areas of state regulation. To assess the current situation in the field of regulation under consideration, the analysis of the effectiveness of the main regulatory legal acts, documents on standardization, as well as a review of a number of literature sources. The assessment of the implementation of individual projects is taken into account. According to the results of the analytical stage and taking into account the forecast of modern strategic directions of development of the construction industry, proposals are given to improve the situation (amendments and additions to normative legal acts, documents on standardization, etc.). The implementation of such proposals will require coordinated work of the Ministry of construction of Russia and other authorized agencies and organizations. The implementation of the results of the study can contribute to the sustainability and efficiency of the development of underground space in our cities.

Use of underground space resources when updating urban development

“…In our opinion, the functional restrictions on the placement of UBS included in CR 248, CR 52, CR 118 should (synchronously with the relevant sanitary standards) be revised and relaxed, taking into account the application of appropriate innovative technical (including the transmission of sunlight deep into [13]) solutions. Of course, this issue requires special research.…”
