Application of LEED green rating systems in infrastructure of airport complexes

Abstract

The main trends in the development of airport complexes in the international transport system includegrowingeco-movement and measures to reduce harmful emissions and greening their infrastructure. There are modern green rating systems for certification of green buildings and constructive objects, which equally impose requirements on the transport system. Along with them, there is anAirport Carbon Accreditation Programfocused only on airport complexes. It contains 6 levels and aims to minimize the negative impact of airport complexes, reducing the carbon footprint. This factor, according to scientists, is the root cause of global climate change. In addition to reducing emissions, measures are being taken to switch to renewable energy sources. This is very important because the energy and water consumption of this infrastructure is high.
