“…This circumstance led to an increase in the anthropogenic load on the ecosystem and a violation of the general ecological balance, therefore there was an urgent need to form a new outlook on nature and the economy. This type of environmentally friendly economy has come to be called the "green" economy (Tarkhanova 2018;Lisin et al 2018;Hoop and Tarkhanova 2019).…”

Nowadays, European countries pursue an active policy in the field of greening the economy, expanding the practice known as "green finances". The main goal of this activity is, above all, in the achievement of environmentally sustainable economic growth. However, it has to be noted that in the Russian Federation the movement towards greening the economy began later than in other countries. Therefore, specific measures and mechanisms are required to implement the concept of transition from a brown economy to a green one. In order to modernize the Russian economy, financial resources are needed, including those originating in the private sector. All in all, it becomes appropriate to consider the composition of financial instruments for green financing, in which temporarily available cash is allocated in such a way that as a result a synergy of economic effect and environmental benefit is achieved. Our paper focuses on these problematic economic issues concerning leadership in the green economy of Russia and the development of green financing as the basis for environmentally sustainable evolution.

“…Energy security determines protection state of the economy and consumers from the external and internal threats to stable fuel and energy supply failure. In the market conditions such state is achieved by ensuring lack free resource supply, consumer availability of energy products and its production economic profitability, as well as availability of technologies ensuring reliable and efficient operation of power facilities with the existing environmental restrictions (Lisin et al 2018;Bilgen 2014).…”

Nowadays the main power sources extensively used by the humankind are represented by the various types of fossil fuels, first and most of all, by oil and gas. However, these sources have limited reserves that will be deploited within the next 100-200 years according to various estimates. Unlike traditional power industry, power industry of renewable energy sources (RES) is not based on substance reserves, but on natural energy flows. These are wind flows, solar radiation, heat of the earth interior, etc. This paper focuses on the usage of the world's energy resources over the past 40 years and offers new solutions for employing the leading approaches for using renewables in otder to improve the energy security. Based on the conducted structural analysis of the stored energy resources, the rationale for the use of renewable power sources considering national energy security is provided, and a model for their economic evaluation is proposed through the example of wind generation facilities.

“…Small-scale cogeneration could also potentially provide the energy needs of a group of dwellings-in a large building or a neighbourhood, for example [7]. The main issue for this type of consumers is that the heat demand is variable during the year, peaking in winter and reaching minimum values in the summer [8]. When the heat demand is not high enough, the exhaust gases of the small scale CHP units have to be blown off at a high temperature; thus, the overall cogeneration efficiencies (of around 80 % to 85 %) are reduced to the electrical efficiency.…”

Is There a Future for Small-Scale Cogeneration in Europe? Economic and Policy Analysis of the Internal Combustion Engine, Micro Gas Turbine and Micro Humid Air Turbine Cycles

et al. 2019

If more widely deployed, small-scale cogeneration could increase energy efficiency in Europe. Of the two main commercially available technologies—the Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) and the micro Gas Turbine (mGT)—the ICE dominates the market due to its higher electrical efficiency. However, by transforming the mGT into a micro Humid Air Turbine (mHAT), the electrical efficiency of this cycle can increase, thus enhancing its operational flexibility. This paper presents an in-depth policy and economic assessment of the the ICE, mGT and mHAT technologies for dwellings based in Spain, France and Belgium. The hourly demands of average households, the market conditions and the subsidies applicable in each region are considered. The aim is twofold: to evaluate the profitability of the technologies and to assess the cogeneration policies in place. The results show that only the ICE in Brussels is economically viable, despite all units providing positive energy savings in all locations (except mHAT in Spain). Of the three different green certificate schemes offered in Belgium, Brussels is the one leading to the best outcome. Spain awards both capital and operational helps, although auto-consumption is not valued. The same applies to the complex French feed-in tariff. Conclusively, with the current policies, investing in small-scale cogeneration is in general not attractive and its potential efficiency gains remain unveiled.
