Growth poles in the Krasnoyarsk region: methods of identification and concentration of effects

The article examines the geographical distribution of economic effects from the implementation of large projects in the Krasnoyarsk region: municipalities are distinguished – growth poles and poles of acceptance of growth effects. Based on the Moran index and the volume of investments in fixed assets calculated for the municipalities of the Krasnoyarsk region, the municipalities – growth poles are identified, local specialization and specifics of projects are analyzed, as well as the impact of these factors on economic growth. Poles of acceptance of effects are allocated on the basis of the number of firms with "production" OKVED per capita, and also classified in accordance with the dynamics of direct and indirect effects manifested in the territory of the municipality. The geographical separation of the poles of acceptance of effects from the growth poles is noted. If the growth pole and the pole of acceptance coincide geographically, then this is a consequence of solving the related tasks of the project (for example, logistics) and does not contribute to the development of the local economy. The economic effects of the implementation of projects for the municipalities of the Krasnoyarsk region are minimal, and mainly affect only the transport, construction, and partly trade industries. More than 90% of the effects from the implementation of projects are concentrated in Krasnoyarsk, since the largest transport and construction companies in the region are registered here, and the main capacities of the manufacturing industry are located. A single and relatively small impact of projects is manifested for small industrial cities of the Krasnoyarsk region (Divnogorsk, Nazarovo), but the projects being implemented do not become an additional growth factor for cities. The level of concentration of firms with "production" OKVED allows us to identify large centers – potential poles of acceptance of effects, but does not guarantee that they are able to master this potential during the implementation of large projects.
