Abstract

A correlation between an increase in tariffs for housing and communal services and a decrease in the size of a settlement is traced. It is shown that a higher cost of heat supplied from centralized sources in small towns, townships, and rural communities is a consequence of the existing tariff-setting system. An approach for decreasing the cost of power supply is proposed, central to which is utilization of natural resources on the basis of constructing coal-chemical complexes.
