Main objective is to “ensure reliable supply of the country’s fuel and energy resources, increase the efficiency of their use, and reduce anthropogenic impacts of the energy sector on the environment”. 40% decrease of energy intensity of the economy between 2007 and 2020, but alters the 4.5% share of electricity generation from renewable energy sources target to 2.5% by 2020 (excluding large hydro over 25 MW).
(approved by Government Decree No 321)
The quantitative targets by 2020 include:
- Reduction of the energy intensity of GDP by 9.54% (the initial target was 14.5%) compared to 2007 level
- Reduction of power losses in electricity transportation lines from 11.6% to 8.8%
- Increase of the share of renewable energy sources (wind, solar, water) in total electricity generation up to 2.5%, without large hydro)
- Installation of additional renewable energy generation capacity of 5.871 GW
- Reduction of fuel use for heat production by 7%; for electricity generation by 4%
- Improvement of labor productivity growth in the fuel and energy sector from 2% per year to 8.2% per year
- Oil extraction rise from 521.7 to 524.0 mln t/y
- Gas extraction rise from 667.6 to 756.4 billion cubic m/y
- Coal extraction rise from 351.2 to 380 mln t/y
- Increase of the share of technological innovations in investment expenditures from 2.2% to 2.5%
"A number of document behind the State Program address topics such as energy strategy, gas, oil, coal sectors development and concept of socio-economic development by 2020, general scheme on allocation of power generation facilities.
The Programme calls for diverse measures to attain those targets, including:
– evaluating the technological and economic potential of efficient renewables use
– providing subsidies from the state budget in order to compensate for the costs of grid connection for renewables
– installation of smart meters (18.9% of metering devices by 2020)
– increasing the availability of energy infrastructure – reducing the number of steps required to gain access to the grid (from 8 to 5) and reducing the delay of connection to the grid (from 276 to 40 days)
– raising public awareness on energy conservation and energy efficiency." (LSE database)
