Process industries located in emerging economies have relative low levels of production to similar ones located in developed countries, this fact influences the implementation feasibility of cogeneration and/or tri-generation systems that allow a substantial increase in the plant global energy efficiency. In this paper, an energy and economic analysis of several alternatives of cogeneration was done for a company located in Barranquilla (Colombia, South America) that produces vegetable oils and derivatives and its energy matrix is approximately 90% thermal and 10% electric. In this investigation two type of analysis were done, both supported by process simulation software, these are: 1) Taking the plant as the control volume and evaluating the entire electrical demand supply with natural gas engine and turbine – generator, plus exhaust gases heat recovery for refrigeration and/or preheating of thermal oil or water in boilers. 2) As an energy-industrial district, where the company takes advantage of the residual heat of a gas turbine and sells the excess of electrical power to nearby plants, a concept introduced by the authors as Sustainable Energetic Industrial District in Emerging Economies (SEIDEE). The input variable considered for this analysis was electric demand which restricts the technology implementation. It was found that the investment return period is notably lengthy when the thermal machine supplies the electric power demanded by the industrial plant. This period is considerably reduced when the SEIDEE concept is implemented, this period reduction is between 57% and 65%.

Daylight analysis as a tool for energy efficiency enhancement in existing buildings is considered in this paper. Through the analysis of five types of exterior static shading devices, horizontal, as well as, vertical, the guidelines for their designing, implementation and possibilities in using of building repairing are given. Also, methods for evaluation of their impact on distribution of daily illumination, viewpoint towards the environment and thermal comfort in general are presented. In the case study, the building of Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services in Podgorica, Montenegro, and sophisticated software tools that enable impact analysis and precise designing of exterior static shading devices are considered. The results are presented through the examples.

Purpose: development of tools for analyzing the effectiveness of the state policy of energy efficiency in the regions of the Russian Federation to increase the feasibility of decisions in the field of managing the economic and economic development of territories. Discussion: the state energy efficiency policy, actively pursued in the past 8-10 years, needs the performance monitoring. However, the Russian system of accounting for energy consumption and energy saving is characterized by an insufficient degree of development. In this regard, It is very actual to add for exists methods some new methods proposed by the author: methods for calculating and analyzing the index of the electrical intensity of the physical volume of GRP; method of decomposition analysis of the electricity consumption increase by main factors; methodology for assessing and analyzing generalized regional energy efficiency indices; method of classification of RF regions by types of their energy-economic development. Conclusion: application of proposed methods can contribute to the improvement of tools for impact analysis of state policy of the RF regions energy efficiency.

At steel production based on scrap metal utilization, the scrap heating before charging into a melting facility is an important way of energy efficiency increase and ecological parameters improving. In winter time scrap metal charging with ice inclusions into a metal melt can result in a considerable damage of equipment and even accidents. Therefore, scrap preliminary drying is necessary to provide industrial safety. It was shown, that in countries with warm and low-snow climate with no risk of scrap metal icing up during its transportation and storing in the open air, the basic task being solved at the scrap drying is an increase of energy efficiency of steelmaking. InRussiathe scrap metal drying first of all provides the safety of the process and next - energy saving. Existing technologies of scrap metal drying and heating considered, as well as advantages and drawbacks of technical solutions used at Russian steel plants. In winter time during scrap metal heating at conveyers (Consteel process) hot gases penetrate not effectively into its mass, the heat is not enough for evaporation of wetness in the metal charge. At scrap heating by the furnace gases, a problem of dioxines emissions elimination arises. Application of shaft heaters results in high efficiency of scrap heating. However, under conditions of Russian winter the upper scrap layers are not always heated higher 0 °С and after getting into a furnace bath the upper scrap layers cause periodical vapor explosions. The shaft heaters create optimal conditions for dioxines formation, which emit into atmosphere. It was shown, that accounting Russian economic and nature conditions, the metal charge drying and heating in modified charging buckets by the heat of burnt natural gas or other additional fuel is optimal. The proposed technical solution enables to burnt off organic impurities ecologically safely, to melt down ice, to evaporate the wetness in the scrap as well as to heat the charge as enough as the charging logistics enables it. The method was implemented at several Russian steel plants. Technical and economical indices of scrap metal drying in buckets under conditions of EAF-based shop, containing two furnaces ДСП-100, presented.
