ABSTRACT
There are realized a few projects using basic components of passive house in Russia: Moscow region, Yekaterinburg, Nizhny Novgorod and St. Petersburg. Pilot projects have low and ultra-low energy consumption for space heating. Energy efficient buildings and passive houses should the following have main features: good insulation, no thermal bridges, effective windows, certified for pas-sive house; internal building envelope; mechanical ventilation system with highly effi-cient heat recovery coefficient. It also requires quality control of construction: heat monitoring with thermal imager and BlowerDoor test. One of the main purposes and problematic questions is reducing the cost of construction of buildings in Rus-sia to the level of standard buildings.
