The long-term low-carbon development strategy, which aims to achieve net zero emissions by Azerbaijan by 2060, identifies improving the energy efficiency of buildings as one of the key areas. In particular, it is planned to introduce highly effective thermal insulation materials and reduce energy consumption in buildings. The implementation of these tasks once again raises the issue of modernization of the Soviet-built housing stock, which is characterized by significant heat losses.

However, how technically and economically feasible is it to isolate the Khrushchevs whose service life is about to end? Does improving the energy efficiency of old buildings cause the demolition to be delayed, or should such measures only apply to buildings suitable for continued use?
