Energozamena. Renewable energy close traditional thermal and nuclear power plants around the world Ukrainian big business starts to invest in alternative energy since the end of this summer for thermal, nuclear and hydroelectric power plants, which supply the Ukraine, joined the country's first solar power plant built in the Crimea, near Simferopol . And soon to be launched a few windmills and small hydropower projects. Faced with a new spiral of rising energy prices, the government started thinking about alternative energy. Interested in this business and the more that you can develop this area on favorable terms. For example, the National Agency on Energy has agreed with the World Bank on the long-term credit line of $ 350 million to finance energy efficiency projects, and the Bank approved $ 50 million on the development of alternative energy in Ukraine. First Vice Prime Minister Andriy Klyuyev predicts: if the share of green energy is now in the country's energy is about 6%, by 2015 it will increase to 20%. To develop alternative projects in Ukraine are the three traditional alternatives to coal and oil - wind, solar and water energy. And that new projects are not denied the profitability of the existing generation, many of them will be built in regions suffering from shortages of electricity. For example, in the south-west of Odessa region, according to Klyuyev, plans to build a solar power station similar to the Crimea, the power of which two years are going to bring thousands of megawatts. Carpathian region, also suffers from similar problems, they want to ensure that due to the energy of water. Now the government are considering a project to develop small hydropower - the construction of the basins of the Dniester, Prut and Siret 58 small power stations, which will increase the generating capacity in the region at 1.6 MW. However, hydropower will be developed not only in the Carpathians. "If the proportion of working in Ukraine, hydro and pumped storage is about 7%, by 2020 it could reach 12%. Mainly due to completion and development of major projects - the Dniester, Kanev, Tashlykskaya and build a second hydroelectric Kakhovska "- says the executive director of the Association Ukrhydroenergo Alexander Karamushka. Following the government started talking about alternative energy, and its interest in the company, which may or may act as a contractor, or invest in projects with their money. "In addition to the Active Solar, has built the Crimean station, the Ukrainian industrial market plan to reach a number of Western companies are now engaged in registration of land and coordination of projects," - said the executive director of Fuel Alternative Julia Berezovsky. Enough willing to invest in wind power generation. For example, the Concord Group in cooperation with German GEO NET Umwelt consulting GmbH in 2011 is going to be put into operation Sivash wind power capacity of 350 MW for 456 million euros. Such plans have the company "PlanEKO together with Windkraft Nord AG and DTEK (part of the corporation" SCM "Rinat Akhmetov). Hedges and bait in the sun. Even in the northern regions of Ukraine the sun more than in Germany - leader in the production of such energy, said Julia Berezovskaya major attraction for investors - a profitable rate. Objects in the solar power industry in Ukraine today can sell energy at 4.68 UAH. per kWh without VAT for stations that are installed on the roof, and 5.09 - for the stations on the ground. That's about 45-47 cents per kW / h. "When that market is attractive at the tariff of 28 cents" - said Ms. Berezovsky. The tariff for wind energy - 11.31 euro cents. Thus, embedded in wind power 2.5 million euros, due to be generated 2 MW capacity, will be repaid over 7-8 years. Because of this investors are not deterred and vulnerabilities of alternative generation. For example, the old distribution networks. "If in the Crimea could build a 3.7 MW wind power generation, then connect to the network will only 2,000", - said chairman of Ukrainian Wind Energy Association Andrew Konechenkov. In the Carpathian region, according to Alexander Karamushka, the problem will be the ROW. "Land along the many rivers, which wants to build hydroelectric power stations, could be privatized. Such cases have already been, and then the finished project is simply nowhere to be implemented "- emphasizes the expert. Problem and that most of the regions that are favorable for the establishment of alternative facilities - the Carpathians, Mykolayiv and Kherson region, steppe Crimea, weakly populated. Therefore, the constructed power plants will need either a network, which will supply energy to other areas, either in infrastructure projects that will use the energy produced. However, as the focus of the experts interviewed assert that all these problems are solvable. Due to favorable climatic conditions and favorable "green" tariff investors in Ukraine are not translated. Natalia Guzenko, Focus
