Technical potential of crop production wastes as energy resource for agricultural regions of Russia

摘要

The use of woody biomass obtained from pruning and removal of perennial agricultural plantations for energy needs is a relatively new direction,which is now actively explored and developed in Europe.In Russia,horticulture and viticulture is also a traditional direction of agriculture in the southern regions,in particular,in the Republic of Dagestan.Dagestan is a volatile region with a variety of problems in the fuel and energy complex.The solution to these problems may become the use of renewable energy resources in the region.The paper presents the methodology for assessment of bioenergy resources in the region with the use of spatial analysis.The main purpose is to determine the optimal economically and technologically available energy technology for the estimated energy resource.The results show the high importance of social and economic factors for the development of renewable energy in the region,which is not typical for the other regions of Russia and should be taken into account in the further development of the methodology of multi-stage bioenergy resource assessment.
