Короткий опис(реферат):
The paper considers the main components of the green university
concept, the foreign experience of environmental transformation of higher
education institutions, and the impact of eco-innovations implementation on
strengthening universities’ position in the UI GreenMetric World University
Rankings. The green strategy of Sumy State University, the results of its
implementation, and prospects for improvement in terms of increasing renewable
energy sources usage through the solar power plant installation are analysed. The
effectiveness of the solar power plant investment project and the reduction of carbon
dioxide emissions into the atmosphere by replacing conventional electricity with
electricity generated by the solar power plant are estimated. It is proved that in
addition to economic and environmental benefits, the implementation of the solar
energy project will positively impact the university’s image at the national and
international levels.
