Description
Summary:Abstract The article is devoted to the possibility of using renewable energy sources for electricity supply to consumers in remote regions of Russia, isolated from power systems. The use of wind energy resources for power supply will reduce the consumption of diesel fuel and, thus, improve the reliability and efficiency of electricity supply to consumers. At the same time, wind power stations are considered as a complementary energy source when working together with diesel power plants, which are the main ones for power supply to decentralized consumers. The construction of wind farms in addition to existing diesel power plants in modern price conditions is cost-effective in the Arctic regions of Yakutia. The extent of the use of renewable energy sources is currently very small. Justification of the use of wind energy for each locality requires a separate specific study to assess the financial and economic efficiency with a preliminary determination of the optimal capacity of wind farms.
