For understanding the nature of most actual problems of the international and regional power safety, and also for search of conciliatory proposals in this sphere, large international actions are planned for 2006-2007. The most significant events are:
To provide the international pool of experts, preparing materials for forthcoming actions, by wider and reliable database on energetic problems in different regions of Russia, the international, state and nongovernmental organizations conduct the range of conferences, seminars and consultations devoted to deeper understanding of regional power problems in different parts of the world. The international seminar " Regional opportunities and problems of renewed power of Russia " is one of the such actions. It is organized for gathering the information and expert estimations concerning opportunities of application of renewed energy sources in four characteristic regions of the Russian Federation (target regions) - Murmansk area, the Yaroslavl area, Republic of Altai and Altai Krai. The main goals of Seminar are:
By the results of the Seminar following outputs is expected :

The region’ profiles: 1.1. The Murmansk Region (Oblast) Total area - 144,9 thousandsq.km. The Murmansk Oblast is located in northern part of Russian Federation beyond The Polar circle. The region is characterized by the long cold period, low population density (mainly living in cities both engaged extraction and primary processing of a mineral source of raw materials). In regional electric power industry the bodies managed by Open Joint Stock Company KOLENERGO are dominated : · Hydroelectric power stations (16 objects); At present the Murmansk area is energy-abundant region were approx. 440 ÌWt of the station established capacity does not consume annually (that makes capacity of one block of the Kola nuclear power station). At the same time it is expected that in nearest future (2007-2010) development of investment projects can lead to power shortage of 315 ÌWt of station established capacity. As measures to compensate such a deficit three basic energy sources - hydrocarbonic fuel, nuclear fuel and renewed energy sources -are considered. The thermal power of region is based on rather small thermal stations of local value working on mineral kinds of fuel. Complex climatic conditions of Murmansk oblast , and also the availability of significant stocks of mineral and hydrocarbonic raw material on its territory and an adjoining shelf zone, assume primary development of extracting branches and primary processing of extracted raw material. 1.2. The Yaroslavl region (Oblast) Total area- 36,4 thousand sq.km. It is located in northern segment of the center of the European part of Russia, in the south it borders the Moscow Region. In the regional industry oil refining, petrochemistry, mechanical engineering (including power), exact equipment producing dominate. The electric power industry of the Yaroslavl area is based mainly on the thermal power stations managed by Open Joint Stock Company YARENERGO. There are some local hydroelectric power stations of dam type on the flat rivers, and the largest one - Rybinskaya - produce a significant part of the electric power consumed by large industrial centre of area - the city of Rybinsk. The thermal power of region is based mainly on the thermal power stations working on mineral fuel and on natural gas. At the same time the significant part of countrymen of the Yaroslavl area and the enterprises of local value (mainly agricultural and woodworking) has no access to the main natural gas. This category of the population of region applies to heating dwellings both industrial premises fire wood and timber waste. 1.3. Republic of Altai and Altai area In USSR this territory was a part of the administrative formation named Altai territory (the Altai autonomous region). In 1991 there was a division into Altai territory (capital city Barnaul) and Republic of Altai (capital city -Gornoaltaisk). Republic of Altai Total area- 92,6 thousand sq.km. It is located at the south part of Western Siberia, bordering Mongolia, China and Kazakhstan. It is mountain territory with continental climate , with small population density and the big extent of communications - including electric networks. The climatic conditions of High-mountainous areas (Kosh-agach and Ulagan) are equal to the severe natural conditions of Far North. The electric power industry of the region is managed by Open Joint Stock Company ALTAIENERGO. The regional industry is developed poorly. The basic of the population is borrowed in local manufacture - mainly in an agriculture. The electricity system of Republic of Altai is scarce. It is supplied from the Altai territory region by the 110 kwt networks which capacity is practically settled. The maximum of energy consumption is happened to the winter period and electric power shortage is marked. Altai region Total area - 169,1 thousand sq.km. Half of population lives in a countryside. This part of inhabitants of region draws special attention from the point of view of RES application opportunities as the heat supply of rural settlements is in a crisis condition. Average electricity supply of rural household consumers is estimated as 900 kwH/per person/per year that is 13 % below average Russian parameters. Last years energy supply of countryside population - the most backward sector in regional energy system - continued to get worse due to accident and restrictive switching-off. The main reasons caused to such situation appears from bad warm-isolation
of municipal buildings built in the Soviet period , characterized by low
energy prices. The basic type of fuel is imported coal used ineffectively
that causes high cost of regional energy supply. As renewed energy sources
only firewood are used - for heating habitation during the long cold period. |
