Comparative analysis of environmental assessment systems of universities in Russia and China (using the example of GREEN ZOOM "Universities and Campuses" and GB/T51356-2019)

This article provides a brief description of two modern systems for assessing the energy efficiency and environmental friendliness of university campuses in Russia and China: GREEN ZOOM "Universities and Campuses" (Russia) and GB/T51356-2019 (China). This issue is relevant due to the possible cooperation between Russia and China in the field of the use of green technologies on university campuses. This article uses the following methods: analysis, classification, analogy. Similar sections of the GB/T51356-2019 standard were defined and compared to the generated sections of the GREEN ZOOM system as a reference. Further, according to a similar principle, in the format of a large table, the key indicators of each section of the GREEN ZOOM assessment systems "Universities and Campuses" (Russia) and GB/T51356-2019 systems (China) were highlighted, showing the similarities of these systems, as well as the possible reasons for their differences. In the final part, conclusions are made reflecting the similarities of these systems, the possible reasons for their differences are analyzed.
