METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF EVALUATION OF EFFICIENCY CONSUMPTION OF FUEL AND ENERGY RESOURCES IN THE PROCESS OF THE FUNCTIONING OF RAILWAY TRANSPORT

Abstract

The authors present an analysis of the energy audit of the holding company “Russian Railways”, as the main tool to assess the effectiveness of consumption of fuel and energy resources in the operation of facilities and logistics infrastructure of railway transport. The basic features of the author’s approach to the calculation of the economic effects of the introduction of energy-saving measures that require consideration of two basic components: direct effect (reduction of energy consumption, water) and an indirect effect. In conclusion, the results of testing the proposed approach to some railway enterprises.
