Tidal Energy in Russia
Russia has many tidal energy resources at its doorstep, although they are currently underdeveloped as well.
- Tidal power plants in the Kola Bay and Sea of Okhotsk alone can generate 100 GW, and the country’s potential for tidal energy production may exceed present levels of energy production.
- With a capacity of 1.7 MW, the Kislaya Guba Tidal Generating Station is the largest tidal generating station in Russia and the fourth largest in the world.
- Russia also has an Arctic Sea tidal power facility with a capacity of 800 MW.
- The Penzhin Tidal Power Plant, the world’s largest power plant with an installed capacity of up to 87 GW and an annual production of 200 TWh, is one example of a likely long-term project.
Renewable Energy Development in Russia
Renewable energy development in Russia is growing so fast due to the global demand for power sources and the limited availability of fossil fuels. The renewable capacity of Russia is 60000 MW. Russia is rich in oil, gas, and coal, which are not renewable.
The important types of renewable energy sources in Russia are hydroelectric energy, wind energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy, tidal energy, and biofuel energy.
Most of Russia’s renewable energy sources are new and have grown in the past few years. The development of the renewable energy sector is expected to improve human resources, including improving energy infrastructure, supplying energy goods and services at socially reasonable prices, providing sustainable training for highly qualified individuals, and raising the standard of living for people everywhere.
In this article, we will discuss renewable energy development in Russia in detail, along with renewable energy policies.
