“…According to the WWF of Russia [2], complete coverage of flaring facilities with flow meters was reached in mid-2010s. Still it is reported that some companies may use other methods to assess flaring emissions even if the flow meter is installed which may lead to biased interpretation of the data [6]. APG utilization rates at a specific oil field are also a trade secret of the company [7], thus detailed data are rarely publically available.…”

“…Besides CO2 emissions, flaring also discharges more than 200 diagnosed toxins such as carcinogens, metals, sour gas with hydrogen sulphide and nitrogen oxides (Korppoo, 2018). He argues that these emissions components are liable to stay in the atmosphere for a long time.…”

Acknowledgement: We are grateful to Professor Ren Chong for providing helpful comments on an earlier draft of this paper and warm appreciation to the Chinese Government Scholarship Council for providing the Corresponding Author with fully funded study grants to pursue his postgraduate studies at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). AbstractThe issue of gas flaring in Nigeria has become a topical one in view of the devastating effect it has in the socioeconomic lives of the people in the affected areas. This paper investigates the environmental implication and mitigating strategies of the victims in Nigeria. Mix method was adopted by conducting 60 semi-structured interviews in three communities. The data was transcribed and analyzed using ATLAS.ti and content analysis. Findings show that gas flaring is the major problem facing the Niger Delta communities having negative effects on resident's health, source of income and farm produce without any legal framework to curb it. Findings also show that people mitigate by using self-strategies such as nose mask, fertilizer for farm produce and boiling of drinking water. Data collected from government shows that there is an annual increase in gas production but gas flaring decreases at a slower rate as depicted in the graph. The paper is the first to conduct research on the coping strategy of the victims of gas flaring in Niger Delta and the importance of technology in eradicating gas flaring. The study recommended technology transfer from technologically advanced countries in capturing the associated gas instead of flaring it.

“…Consequently, it drives the interest of scholars and practitioners around the globe and stimulates research on the Russian energy and fuel complex. For instance, there are well established and continuously developing groups of scientific knowledge devoted to Russia's traditional energy resources: (a) Oil (Kryukov and Moe, 2018;Vatansever, 2017;Kapustin and Grushevenko, 2018;Tuzova and Qayum, 2016;Depellegrin and Pereira, 2016;Locatelli and Rossiaud, 2011;Locatelli, 2006;Reynolds and Kolodziej, 2007); (b) natural gas (Pierk and Tysiachniouk, 2016;Orazalin and Mahmood, 2018;Shvarts et al, 2016;Talipova et al, 2019;Visenescu, 2018;Mitrova et al, 2016;Korppoo, 2018); and (c) coal (Gorbacheva and Sovacool, 2015;Grammelis et al, 2006;Das, 2001;Alekseenko et al, 2018;Krasil'nikova, 2001;Artobolevskiy, 2003;Sperkach, 2010;Tumanovskii, 2017;Lakhno, 2015).…”

The authors argue that the contemporary scholarship on hydro energy in Russia lacks a comprehensive overview of development trends, global and regional challenges, and future prospects in connection with the ongoing processes in other sectors of the national economy. Consequently, this paper addresses the gap existing in the scholarship by providing a holistic view of the current state of Russia's hydro energy. It also identifies and discusses the key developmental constraints, including the general economic and political situation developing both in Russia and in the world, negative trends in the country's wholesale electricity market and the long-term capacity market, the Russian Government's focus on development of nuclear power stations and not hydroelectric power stations, as well problems of ensuring the technical and environmental safety of hydropower facilities. Finally, the paper outlines prospects of hydro energy in Russia, taking into account global, regional, and national trends in energy development
