Abstract
Research into the factors influencing the performance of heat power industry enterprise is specific due to aspects of subordination and regulation of enterprises in the field of heat power engineering. Heat power plant (thermal power plant) is a typical representative of the heat power industry and it displays all the main characteristics of the industry. The conclusions of the PEST-analysis characterize the general factors influencing the heat and electricity market, i.e. the market of the discussed enterprise. According to the conclusions of the SWOT-analysis the paper determines the priority areas of enterprise development. The main step towards the intensification of the enterprise performance is a project aimed at raising the connected thermal capacity that will allow to reduce production costs (increasing the workload on equipment), improve social welfare for the city (creating new jobs and improving the quality of home heating) and boost interest of investors in the enterprise (growing profitability).
Highlights
The main problems of the enterprise PJSC "Dniprovs’ka Combined Heat Power Plant" and ways to tackle them are typical for enterprises of heat and power industry of Ukraine [1]
The main problem of JSC DCHP is that it is lacking current assets, including money funds. This fact is due to the following reasons: tariffs for heat production approved by the National Commission for State Regulation of Energy and Utilities [2] and significant debts of the customer – reseller of heat energy – the Municipal Utility Company of Kamianske City Council
Risks associated with the project: rising fuel prices – coal, natural gas; rising prices for equipment as well as construction and installation work; changing environment on electricity market; consumers’ refusal to use thermal energy; refusal of the energy market to purchase electricity due to cheaper offer from other producers
Summary
The main problems of the enterprise PJSC "Dniprovs’ka Combined Heat Power Plant" and ways to tackle them are typical for enterprises of heat and power industry of Ukraine [1]. The main activities are: production, transmission and supply of heat and electricity to housing as well as to communal and industrial enterprises of the right bank of the city. There is a need to increase production in order to load equipment The solution to this issue may be to enter a new market, i.e. to supply heat energy to the left bank of the city. This makes it possible to defend the strategic position of the company in the city and deliver to consumers’ apartments heating and electricity, and hot water.
