Abstract

Comparison of combined heat and power development trends in Russia and other countries allowed us to assess world CHP development trends for different regions of Russia. The paper presents a methodological approach to a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness and extent of the CHP development proposed by ERI RAS. This approach is based on a unified representation of both energy consumption of all Russian cities and the sources of their supply. In addition, combined heat and power is considered in a complex relationship with other types of power generators and fuel industries. The applicability of this approach for the study of the development prospects of diverse CHP plants was shown. The presented methodical approach was used to develop draft scenarios of the Energy Strategy of Russia until 2035. The performed assessment of preferred application areas and effective extent of CHP development indicated the reasonability of continuing growth of CHP capacity and their role in the district heating system in Russia.
