OPTIMISTIC SCENARIO OF BIOENERGY DEVELOPMENT
• Annual energy balance of Russia is more than 1,600 million tons of oil equivalent
• Potential biomass-based production of biofuels in Russia in the coming decades can reach about 1,500 million tons of oil equivalent/ year and will not concede to annual production of oil, coal or natural gas.
• In case of optimistic scenario of emerging bioenergy branch development Russia has a chance to become the largest exporter of a number of bioenergy products .
BIOFUELS OF CHOICE
• Availability of agricultural and forest organic waste predicts the following universal biofuels to be acceptable for all Russian regions :
– PELLETS (granules, briquettes)
– BIOGAS
(Institute for Energetic Strategy)
EMERGING THE NEW BIOINDUSTRY BRANCH: PELLETS PRODUCTION
• New branch is emerged in Russian forest-industrial complex: the production of fuel pellets from sawdust .
• > 200 pellets production plants with capacity ranging from 1 th t to 100 th tons have been built over the last 10 years in Russia.
• > 1 mln tons pellets were produced in 2011 (5th place in the world after Sweden, Germany, Canada, USA).
• Russia became one of the key pellets supplier to Europe surpassing the former leader – Canada.
BIOGAS PRODUCTION – THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR RURAL AND REMOTE AREAS
� Development of the biogas segment looks the most promising because it does not require major investments in the organization of production but creates conditions for effective growth of rural and remote regions, solves a range of social, economic and environmental problems.
� The sufficient resource base and proprietary technology solutions are provided.
ENERGY CROPS CULTIVATION – PROMISING RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCE
• Russian potential of abandoned arable land suitable for energy plants cultivation as a feedstock to produce biogas and bioethanol is about 40 mln hectares
CropsArea of cultivation sufficient to meet the demand of transport of agri-industrial complex
Area of cultivation sufficient to meet the demand of transport of the Russian Federation
Jerusalem artichokes
3 mln hectares 15 mln hectares
Sugar sorghum
1 mln hectares 15 mln hectares
LIQUID BIOFUELS
• The industrial branch of liquid biofuel production is under-developed in Russia
• Although in 2005 the total production capacity of bioethanol was 1.5 billion liters/year , in 2008 was released only 500 million liters of bioethanol (from crops and wood residues).
• Currently, some regions are going to expand production of liquid biofuels (Tatarstan, Omsk, Tomsk, Volgograd, Lipetsk, Penza, Rostov and other regions).
•
22
BIO-OIL
• Currently in Russia and worldwide the thermochemical technologies are under development which permit to produce bio-oil on the basis of deep chemical processing (pyrolysis) of all kinds of raw materials (wood, straw, corn waste, municipal solid waste, etc.).
• Bio-oil can be used as heating oil boilers and in the transport sector .
• 1 ton of waste = 600-800 kg of bio-oil
• Production cost of 1 ton of bio-oil = $ 200 (price of raw materials is $ 20/ton)
PROMISING BIOENERGY TECHNOLOGIES IN RUSSIA
� Bio-alcohols from lignocellulose
� Bio-oil processing into a high-quality fuel
� Bio-kerosene from vegetable oils
� Qualified non-standard fuel combustion in catalytic boilers
� Fast pyrolysis of lignocellulose with green diesel production
SPECIAL SIGNIFICANCE OF BIOENERGY FOR RUSSIA IN THE XXI CENTURY
The main challenge for Russia in the XXI сentury is the need to provide a sustainable development of the large territory
in the conditions of decrease in population and undeveloped infrastructure
This problem can be solved on the basis of
BIOENERGY development
SOME DATA ON RUSSIAN FEDERATION ENERGY SECURITY
���� 2/3 of the Russian territory does not have electric power distribution network
���� 20 mln. people do not have a reliable electric power supply
���� 11 thousand settlements have disappeared from the Russian map over the last 20 years
���� 13 thousand settlements are about to disappear

GOOD BASIC CONDITIONS TO PUSH RE
• All Russian regions possess the principle renewable energy sources (solar, wind, small hydropower, biomass) and have the necessary capabilities for creation of integrated energy systems to produce heat, electricity and motor fuel s and to meet the demand of population and industry in any kind of fuel and energy
• Alternative energy sources are able to provide up to 30% of the fuel and energy consumptio n in Russia i.e. 916 mln t of oil equivalent/per year
• There are a number of domestic bioenergy technologies capable to provide the economic and social development of the remote and rural Russian regions .
AVAILABILITY OF BIOENERGY FEEDSTOCKBY REGIONS
Qualitative & quantitative characteristics and struct ure of available bioenergy feedstock (in tons of oil equivalent) by Russian regions determine not only the type of bioenergy technologies for biofuels production, but also their possible volume production in each Russian region.
MAIN APPROACH TO PROVIDING THE REGIONAL BIOENERGY SUPPLY
• Differences in renewable energy sources distributio n imposes the creation of bioenergy clusters combining different renewable energy sources as a principle approach to the regional bioenergy supply.
