Abstract: Abstract In Krasnoyarsk, where the main type of fuel is coal, there is an acute problem of air pollution from industrial and mobile sources aggravated by the hollow landscape and decreasing average annual wind speed. One of the possible solutions to this problem is gas infrastructure development, which, according to the latest official publications, is to be implemented by 2028. The article assesses the cost and feasibility of several options of gas supply systems as well as alternative ways to reduce pollutant emissions through the use of other fuels. Based on this analysis, short-term and long-term solutions to the city’s environmental problems are proposed.
