This article deals with the problems of an integrated energy assessment of industrial and civil facilities commissioned upon completion of conversion projects for capital construction facilities located on former industrial sites. It describes the need for updating the regulatory framework that determines the general methodology of this type of works and specifies energy research methods and instruments. In addition, it formulates requirements to the professional skills of experts involved in this research. The article reviews the European experience of energy saving and enhancing the energy efficiency of this type of buildings. It should be noted that only every fourth subject of the Russian Federation, the largest energy producing country, has an approved energy saving and energy efficiency improvement governmental program for newly commissioned buildings and structures. The article also offers an organizational and methodological structure for raising the energy efficiency level of buildings being commissioned after conversion of industrial facilities.
