The Potential of Using Renewable Energy Sources for the Regional Industrial Sector

Abstract

The research aim is to identify the potential of using renewable energy sources in the in activities of industrial enterprises in the region. It is established that the rational use of energy resources is possible when taking into account all the possibilities of implementation one or another type of non-traditional energy sources. Based on economic assessment results, promising directions for the development of alternative energy in the region are noted. An analysis of the territorial possibilities of using renewable energy sources was carried out by calculating of total specific normalized potential level. The economic effects of the distributed generation facilities integration into the enterprises energy system are determined.
