  1. UZBEK ACADEMY OF SCIENCES Materials Science Institute of Scientific Association “Physics-Sun” POTENTIAL AND PROSPECTIVE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY APPLICATION IN UZBEKISTAN Dr. Sultan Suleimanov E-mail:sultan@uzsci.net Washington - 2009

  2. INTRODUCTION • One of the expected peculiarities of 21 century is catastrophic consequences of natural resources exhaustion and climate warming on Earth. Problem of energy has already acquired a global character now. • According to evaluations of the World Energy Agency for year 2050 the share of Renewable Energy (RE) should reach ~40% of the total energy balance. In this case only the concentration of CO2 will be stabilized in 2050 and then it can slowly decrease. • During the coming 15 years new ecologically clean technologies should be created and implemented, financial and law barriers in this field should be removed, RE market should be created in Uzbekistan. 

  3. DEVELOPED COUNTRIES. The share of using RE sources in developed countries is 5 - 8 % from the total amount. • Though the price for energy carriers is very low, there are 1500 populated settlements in Uzbekistan which do not have any energy sources, and application of installations on renewable energy sources is economically reasonable. • Alternative technology for RE is nuclear energy. In France, 70 % of electricity is produced by nuclear power stations.

  4. TECHNICAL POTENTIAL OF UZBEKISTAN IN RE

  5. For the years of independence from 1991, annual production has increased: Gas in 1,4 times Oil and gas condensate in 3 times This has enabled the Republic to achieve energy independence

  6. Production of electrical energy for today is the following: Thermal stations produce88 % Hydropower stations produce12%

  7. STRUCTURE OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN UZBEKISTAN

  8. HYDRO-POWER ENGINEERING • Technical potential of the main rivers of Uzbekistan is 21,0 TW . h. Technical potential of little rivers is 10,4 TW . h. • At the present time, 20% of this potential is used. 31 hydro-electric power stations with fixed power of 1,7 GW are working. They produce 6 TW . h electric energy per year.

  9. ELECTRIC POWER ENGINEERING

  10. Uzbekistan has favorable climate conditions for using solar energy. • Technical potential of solar energy exceeds the annual requirements of Uzbekistan for power resources as much as about 4 times (65 - 70 equivalent million ton/year). • In Uzbekistan quantity of solar radiance hours during a year reaches 2800 - 3100. Direct solar radiation reaches up to 1000 W/m2.

  11. PRIMARY DIRECTIONS OF THE NATIONAL PROGRAM OF UZBEKISTAN IN THE FIELD OF SOLAR ENERGY • Investigations and developing of new progressive technologies on transformation of solar energy. • Wide industrial production of water heating solar systems. • Production of technical silicon, solar cells and solar arrays for photoenergetics. • Thermodynamic conversion of solar energy on the basis of Stirling cycle. • Production of functional and constructive ceramics on the basis of domestic raw materials and materials synthesized on the Big Solar Furnace. • Professional training of experts on development and production of RE Installations. • Pilot demonstration projects.

  12. PROBLEMS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF SOLAR ENERGY INSTALLATIONS • Very low intensity of solar energy: The flow of solar energy is around 850 W / m2. At 12 % efficiency of solar cells, from 1 square meter we can get around 100 W. • Very low prices for fuel • Usually the electricity produced by solar arrays has the price of 5-20 times more than for traditional technology. • RE Installations are very expensive and the implementation needs large financial potential. The price of solar energy installations per 1 kW is 5-10 times more than for traditional technology.

  13. WHAT IS NECESSARY TO IMPLEMENTATION OF RE INSTALLATIONS IN UZBEKISTAN • Scientists and engineers in RE related area have real experience in the field of RE application. • Domestic technical potential to produce own RE installation. • Privileges (to producers, importers and consumers) for RE activity. • Opportunity to import RE installation and ecologically clean technologies from abroad.

  14. Flat solar water heater, developed in Physical Technical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan

  15. The field of solar collectors for combined system of hot water supply produced in Tashkent in the framework of TACIS

  16. Portable solar sources for consumers removed from central electricity net Photovoltaic installation in expanded form 1 2 Electronic control units of the installation: 1 – Inverter with controller in single case, 2 – accumulator batteries, 3 – photovoltaic batteries 3

  17. Photovoltaic installation, mounted inside the touristic object Ayazkala Portable photovoltaic welding unit

  18. Water desalinization system

  19. MW year Increase of photovoltaic stations production in the world

  20. THERMODYNAMIC CONVERSION BASED ON STIRLING ENGINE • Engine on the basis of Stirling cycle operates from external heat source (gas, solar energy, other types of fuels). • Thermodynamic conversion of solar energy on the basis of Stirling engine allows to obtain electric and thermal energy. • Use of autonomous solar energy-installations with Stirling engine is perspective for consumers living in remote regions and for module electric power stations.

  22. Stirling engine developed by Physical Technical Institute.Power : 3 kW (electricity) and 18 kW (hot water) 26.10.2014

  23. Experimental Stirling engine with gas burner, with 5 kW “swash plate” drive

  28. Ceramic goods, produced on the basis of materials synthesized on the Big Solar Furnace

  29. WIND ENERGY The analysis of wind speeds in Uzbekistan and their instability during a day and year shows, that the creation of autonomous wind power stations in Uzbekistan is ineffective. It is reasonable to create combined installations like wind power generator with photovoltaic station.

  30. ENERGY OF BIOMASS • Forests occupy nearly 3.2 % of the republic territory. They belong to the 1st group and their commercial cutting is prohibited. • Main feedstock for biomass is stem of cotton plant and wastes of agriculture. They are distributed over all agricultural fields of the Republic. That is why the creation of autonomous installations using wastes of agriculture together with wastes of livestock farms and complexes for biogas production are economically profitable.

  31. Solar Hydrogen Zn + H2O ZnO + H2↑ Industrial technology of Zn and ZnO production uses electrolysis, which requires much energy and pollutes the environment. In regular conditions thermal dissociation of ZnO passes under 17500C. ZnO + C Zn + CO2 350-8000C 12000C

  32. CONCLUSION Uzbekistan has all capabilities to get positive results in using RE: • Uzbekistan possesses huge renewable energy sources. • Scientists and engineers in RE related area posses real experience on the field of RE. • The domestic technical potential to produce own RE. • RE activity in Uzbekistan have some privileges in taxes and free from custom payments.
