Effective management of water resources, reduction of light pollution, correct organization of construction works and minimizing the negative impact on the environment during the further operation of the building are important. As a practical example of these approaches, Dalan Technopark was presented, a multifunctional business complex with a total area of ​​154,500 square meters, which was designed and built in accordance with the requirements of the LEED green building standard.

Everything we do for the organization of the construction and later operation of the building directly coincides with the ideology of COP17," Hayk Ter-Tachatyan said. During the speech, the leading role of Dalan Technopark in the formation of a new culture of sustainable construction in Armenia was also emphasized. The principles adopted in the design and the construction organization approaches can serve as an example and become the basis for the development and introduction of new construction standards in Armenia.
