On November 20-22, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Siberia hosted a forum that brought together leading energy industry experts, speakers, scientists, business representatives and government authorities to share experiences and search for innovative solutions. The forum was attended by representatives of the TeRUS project.
Today, one can often hear in the world about "energy transformation" or even about the "global energy revolution", meaning by this, first of all, the rapid spread and increasing role of renewable energy in the energy systems of different countries of the world. The global renewable energy sector continued to show record growth rates in 2023: renewable energy accounted for 87% of the global increase in energy capacity. Current trends in the development of energy transfer technologies indicate that the renewable energy sector will continue to grow at an accelerated pace.
Russia, of course, is better provided with its own fuel and energy resources than any other country in the world, but the development of renewable energy sources is an important strategic direction for future energy. As of July 1, 2024, the total installed capacity of renewable energy generation in the Russian energy system reached 6.18 GW. However, this is still a very small proportion of the country's energy balance, not exceeding 1%.
The head of TeRUS, Ivan Tislenko, took part in the round table "Points of growth: energy efficiency and new services of energy companies", holding a presentation of our project and discussing with specialists the use of new technological solutions, issues and problems of small-scale energy, the prospect of using new technologies of alternative green energy in Siberia. For the first time, a mock-up of the FVTS-25 installation was shown at the sites of the region for specialists of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.
The interest of the participants in the project was manifested mainly in the complex application of wind turbine equipment with other energy sources (heat pumps, SES, microelectric power plants). Representatives of RusHydro, who were not previously familiar with the TeRUS project, became interested in design solutions. We have agreed on the provision of information and possible prospects for cooperation.
Today, the prototype of the windmill is at the stage of manufacturing components.
