Current status, description of problems and needs for their solution
According to the Energy Security Strategy, approved by the order of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 08/04/2021 No. 907-r, the fuel and energy complex of Ukraine was in a critical state even before the beginning of the full-scale armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. Despite joining ENTSO-E and a significant increase in investments in the energy system of Ukraine during 2022-2022, the energy sector of Ukraine continues to be in a critical state as a result of damage caused by systematic missile and drone strikes of the Russian Federation on energy facilities of Ukraine during 2022-2024.
Responding to such challenges, PJSC "Ukrnafta" is actively involved in solving the issue of unstable electricity generation. In particular, a strategic decision was made to focus on energy production using natural gas. One of the directions that the company is actively developing is the production of electric and thermal energy (cogeneration) using gas piston or gas turbine units.
Installation of generating units (gas turbine, gas piston, cogeneration, etc.) is a primary task to cover the power deficit in the energy system of Ukraine and ensure reliable electricity supply to consumers and critical infrastructure facilities, especially in the autumn-winter period.
Promoting the involvement of cogeneration plants in Ukraine's energy system is also consistent with Ukraine's aspirations for further integration of Ukraine with the European Union. Pursuant to Directive 2012/27/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on energy efficiency, Member States shall adopt policies that encourage due consideration at local and regional levels of the potential for use of efficient heating and cooling systems, in particular those using highly efficient cogeneration . The potential for the development of local and regional heat supply markets should be taken into account.
A detailed description of the project goal and the way to achieve it
It is not only the possibility of more efficient use of natural gas, the reduction of its consumption by TKE facilities, and the possibility of long-term containment of the increase in heating tariffs that is relevant.
The potential of decentralized electricity generation is important. What's more, the use of highly efficient cogeneration units instead of boilers, which are traditional for most heating and communal energy enterprises, will turn the latter from those that put a heavy load on the electric power system into ones that, on the contrary, will become net suppliers of electric energy to the energy system.
Moreover, suppliers of flexible generation, which is the most demanded of our power system. This need for distributed flexible generation is important in the face of terrorist attacks in the Russian Federation, but will be even more important for the further decarbonization of the electricity system.
The purpose of this project is to ensure uninterrupted supply of thermal energy to the selected territorial community of Lviv region and electric energy of UES-U both in the basic mode and in the mode of peak loads.
Gas turbine engine technologies are best suited for flexible modes with frequent starts and stops and therefore can effectively cooperate with generation plants from renewable energy sources. Cogeneration plants (power plants) are designed to provide UES-U with energy, in particular, in the hours of the absence of wind (for wind turbines) or sunlight (for SPPs), thereby significantly increasing the resilience of UES-U to climatic conditions and demand in a specific period of time.
