Abstract
The article considers the state and prospects of bioenergetics development in the context of rationalization of the use of available natural resource potential of Ukraine. It is determined that one of the most perspective renewable energy sources is biomass, the main component of which is by-product of plant growing. It is noted that the use of by-products of crop production for receiving heat energy is a rational way to utilize their surpluses that are not used for other purposes of agriculture. The existing resource potential of this agricultural biomass and source of its obtainment were characterized. An estimation of the potential of this type of biomass up to 2025, which can be used for thermal power engineering was made. It was noted that the effective use of biomass potential of agricultural enterprises is possible in case of creation of the appropriate mechanism, a set of management decisions aimed at solving the energy issue. The structure of the formation of the economic model of the influence of factors on the state of the use of by-products of crop production in thermal power engineering was proposed.
Highlights
In recent years, due to the global energy crisis, agricultural products and waste have begun to be considered as fuel resources
It is necessary to have clear data on the annual volume of production of by-products of crop production to do this, as well as of that part which is available for energy use
Ukraine has a great potential for agricultural waste, which is cheap and affordable raw material for energy production
Summary
Due to the global energy crisis, agricultural products and waste have begun to be considered as fuel resources. In Ukraine, the practice of using by-products of crop production for heating began in 2000 with the installation of a straw burning boiler with a installed capacity of 980 kW / h. The Ukrainian company UTEM began to produce similar boilers under a licensing agreement with the Danish company Passat Energy. Ukraine belongs to countries with high bioenergy potential. Prospects for bioenergy development in Ukraine are defined by the National Renewable Energy Action Plan (NPDWE) for the period up to 2020, approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine on October 1, 2014. The main components of this potential are by-products of plant growing, which includes straw of cereals and rape, corn stalks, sunflower, etc
