The Center for Market Research of the Institute for Statistical Research and Economics of Knowledge published the rating of eco-technological industry development of Russian regions. The rating is a part of the annual market monitoring of digital activity of industrial enterprises of the Russian Federation.
Moscow topped the rating by a wide margin, actively using the benefits of the introduction of eco-technologies, as well as eco-certification in the sub-sectors of industry.
The second, third and fourth places with a margin of one point were taken by the Moscow region, Voronezh and Samara, which, according to experts, also managed to achieve significant results in introducing "green" components into the structure of their economies.
However, industrial, and especially mining-centered regions, became underdogs of the list. Among them are Irkutsk, Kemerovo, Novosibirsk, and Volgograd regions.
Only 30 regions of the Russian Federation are represented in the rating.
