Application of Renewable Energy Sources in the Design of Energy-Efficient Ecological Settlements (on the Kharkiv Region)

The article is devoted to the research of the basic methods of designing energy efficient ecological settlements with the use of renewable energy sources in the Kharkiv region. At present, there are no community-oriented, socially just and environmentally friendly housing projects on the market. Modern urban formations cause social isolation and encourage car dependence, thereby creating unfavorable living conditions for the population and the environment. Areas become unsuitable for comfortable living due to inaccessibility, constant congestion, air pollution, excessive noise and lack of landscaping. Creating comfortable living conditions, namely the creation of energy-efficient ecological settlements is gaining scientific interest. By energy-efficient ecological settlements are meant urban planning entities that are based on the use of alternative energy sources, trying to change and resist the main economic, environmental, cultural and urban planning institutions. Energy-efficient ecological settlements offer an alternative to modern residential areas, which are focused on providing comfortable living conditions and protecting the environment.
