Japanese companies to participate in the energy sector of the Far East is a large field of activity

Japanese side at the round table as speakers and panelists represented by Deputy Director
International Cooperation ANRE, Counselor for Economic Affairs of the Embassy of Japan in Russia, a senior consultant at Nomura Research Institute for Economic and Industrial Policy, the high-level experts on modern technological solutions from leading Japanese companies such as Panasonic Corporation and Hitachi, Ltd. On the Russian side, presentations were made by representatives of the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation, the Russian Energy Agency, CJSC "EFA" of governments and administrations of the Russian Federation, the city authorities.

"The prospects of Japanese companies in the energy development of the Far East," analyzed the possibility of cooperation of Russian energy and Japanese manufacturers of power equipment and software solutions in the different regions of DFO. In particular, the case of two "green" projects to build multi-energy complex in the Tixi Ortho and para-Balagan (Republic of Sakha, Yakutia) were examined using Japanese versions of effective technological solutions for solar panels and wind turbines operating in cold climates.

The company already has experience working with a Japanese company in the implementation of projects of small and distributed power: it is a gas turbine plant (GTP) "Kawasaki" acquired OAO "FEEMC" as the main generating equipment for mini-CHP "Central" and CHP "Aquarium". In total, the two sources of generation installed seven GTP model GPB70D (66 MW 918 Gcal /h). GPB series is specially designed to operate as a base load, as well as for parallel operation with grids. This model is distinguished by the presence of cogeneration mode, which simultaneously generates heat with electricity. The total efficiency of the model increases to 80%, significantly outperforming the majority of Russian thermal power plants. GTU is very economical to use and, in addition, can operate on natural gas and diesel fuel - it only increases the efficiency and reliability of the energy supply.

According to Dmitry Timofeev, "four years ago when designing CHP Japanese equipment was selected from a large number of existing analogues as the most efficient, and high standards of reliability of power supply. In isolated power center where the concept of distributed energy is the best solution in terms of cost, and from the point of view of its service, the overall efficiency of such systems, including electrical and thermal component, is quite high. This CHP is not just economical, reliable, environmentally friendly, but also easy to use thanks to the automatic control from a remote location allowing the user to operate facilities. use of such equipment in the construction of new power, of course, contribute to the development of energy in the Russian regions, primarily in the Far East. "

At the same time, however, Japanese companies wary of power engineering approach to projects and small distributed power in the Russian Far East. At present, the implementation of such projects are most commonly used solar panels from China and used wind turbines in Europe.
