The analysis of the technical condition of power plants when using renewable energy sources in the territory of the Russian Federation

The peoposed paper is devoted to the study of the possibility of using renewable energy sources in the territory of the Russian Federation. The Far Eastern Federal District was chosen for the analysis, where the use of renewable energy is one of the priority areas for the development of the region and it has a high potential. The paper analyzes the operation of three stations, considers the level of emissions of harmful substances depending on the type of fuel per unit of produced capacity of these facilities, it considers the possibility of replacing stations with alternative power plants powered by wind and solar energy. A conclusion is made about the costs of installing alternative power plants and operating costs. The statement of reasons for replacing traditional stations with capacities of more than 100 MW with alternative ones is given. A comparison of the use of renewable energy sources during their operation for facilities with full autonomy is made. The significance of the results of this paper is characterized by the possibility of their use in building short-term and long-term prospects for the state of the renewable energy sector, and the results can be used to develop recommendations for the implementation of projects based on renewable energy resources.
