Comparative estimate of the cost of thermal energy from the operating and projected heat-generating sources for the systems of heat supply of Ukrain

Journal Title: Проблеми загальної енергетики - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 3

Abstract

We present the results of calculations of the average cost of thermal energy for the life cycle of boiler houses, working on different kinds of fossil fuels, rendering plants, heat pump station (HPS), and solar power plant. We have established that, under conditions of market competition, it is most reasonable to implement boilers using bituminous coal and waste energy (exhaust gases). In order that HPS could compete with gas boiler houses, it is necessary to reduce the cost of electricity for HPS, or increase the transformation ratio of heat pumps, or lower the cost of equipment for HPS. This, in turn, can be achieved by using heat pumps and other equipment of domestic production.
