Abstract

[For the English abstract and full text of the article please see the attached PDF-File (English version follows Russian version)].ABSTRACT The article considers the need to modernize the heat supply system of railway stations within the framework of the main guidelines of the energy strategy of the Russian Federation until 2030. The main park of boiler rooms is equipped with the aged machinery that by some features does not meet the standards of environmental friendliness, safety and efficiency. The article presents the main indicators of boiler rooms of a new type. The comparative analysis of the characteristics of the new and former boiler rooms as of an energy complex is suggested. The conformity of the proposed indicators to the guidelines of the energy strategy of the Russian Federation and subsequent innovations is determined. One of the conclusions of the authors is that in addition to replacing the equipment, it is necessary to conduct decentralization of the station’s heat supply system.
