The development strategy of the environmental safety of the electric power complex

Abstract

Abstract Consideration of the environmental policy of the electric power complex is becoming relevant at the present time, since most of the power plants were commissioned more than 40-50 years ago, while technological modernization and updating of production capacity did not occur. As a result of the analysis, it was revealed that the growth in the production of electric energy is practically not observed, while the volumes of consumption of coal and gas in the production of electric energy do not change, the use of fixed production assets is increased, as a result of which the standard period of use of the equipment is exceeded. Emissions of pollutants are slightly reduced only by categories of solid waste and sulfur dioxide, emissions of nitrogen oxides do not change, and emissions of carbon oxides increase. The work proposed a mechanism for the development of environmental safety of the electric power complex, containing directions for monitoring the technical condition of power equipment, introducing technical and technological re-equipment of generation facilities, assessing the level of reproduction of fixed production assets, determining the resource dependence of generation facilities and measures for organizing and managing the production process.
