General description:
|
Ignalina, located in the north east part of Lithuania it is a city with 7,500 inhabitants.
The idea is to concentrate the heat produc-tion to one new boiler house already built and to close
two old boiler houses. A wood fired boiler is proposed to be installed.
The distribution networks need to be inter-connected and new substations must be installed The
annual energy production is 36,000 MWh. Heating is produced by 40% light oil and 60 % heavy oil (
mazut ).
|
|
Type of project:a)
|
Renewable energy
|
|
Location (exact, e.g. city, region,
state):
|
Ignalina Town
Utena Region
Lithuania
|
|
Activity starting date:
|
1998-01-21 (Letter of intent)
|
|
Expected activity ending date:
|
Loan expire date 2008-07
|
|
Stage of activity:b)
|
Ongoing
|
|
Lifetime of activity if different from ending date:c)
|
25 years
|
|
Technical data:d)
|
The new boiler will be designed for 5 -8 MW Mazout will still be used in the boiler house for peak
load and as reserve capacity. It will include i.a. firing equipment,
a basic fuel storage on ground (asphalt), fuel conveyor, flue gas cleaner (cyclone), civil works,
buildings, control equipment, commissioning, training etc. A new pre-insulated pipeline is going to
be installed to connect the networks as well as 30 new substations in buildings and block central.
Annual heat after the new project is assumed to be provided with 25,000 MWh biofuels and 10,000 MWh
mazout. 1,000 Mwh is assumed to be saved by the new substations. The emissions are calculated from
the ultimate analysis of the assumed fuels.
|
a) For example, using Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) classification: energy efficiency;
renewable energy; fuel switching; forest preservation, restoration or reforestation; afforestation;
fugitive gas capture; industrial processes; solvents; agriculture; waste disposal or bunker fuels.
b) Circle the appropriate option.
c) Methodological work will be required to define lifetime of activities.
Methodological work will be required to determine for each type of activity what the minimum data
requirements are.

Cost (to the extent possible):
The cost analysis is based on a model developed within the framework of an expert group set up by the
Nordic Council of Ministers and presented in the report TemaNord:564. The calculations include:
1. How would the CO2 emissions have developed without the investment from the investor country,
i.e. determination of a reference alternative.
2. The investment cost of the project.
3. Differences in operation costs before and after the investment.
4. Changes in other economic conditions, e-g- reduction of other environmentally damaging emissions.
5. The time before the project would have been implemented anyhow, or the economic lifetime of the project
if it is reasonable to expect that the project alternatively would not have been implemented within the
period in question.
The more detailed calculations are found in the table enclosed as the last page to this project report.

5) Mutually agreed assessment procedures:
|
Describe the procedures, including name of organizations involveda):
|
|
It is from teh Swedish side intended that upon agreement with a central Lithuanian authority on
reporting of JI-projects, this authority will assign a local organisation, which will be involved
in the evaluation of the climate effects of this project. After an initial work in cooperation with
SNEA’s assigned consultant, this local organisation would take the main responsibility the
continued measuring for JI-reporting.
|
a) Please ensure that detailed contact information for all organizations mentioned is reported under
section A.2 above.
B. Governmental acceptance, approval or endorsement
Bearing in mind that all activities implemented jointly under this pilot phase require prior acceptance,
approval or endorsement by the Governments of the Parties participating in these activities, which shall be
shown as follows:
(a) In the case of joint reporting, the report is submitted by the designated national authority of one
participating Party with the concurrence of all other participating Parties as evidenced by attached
letters issued by the relevant national authorities;
(b) In the case of separate reporting, the reports are submitted separately by the designated national
authority of each and every participating Party. Information will only be compiled once reports have been
received from all participating Parties.
1) For the activity:
First report.
2) This report is a joint report:
3) General short comment by the government(s) if applicable:
cf. Annex II, section B
-

have occurred in the absence of such activities
-
Estimated emissions without the activity (project baseline):
Two years the mixed fuel would have been used. After two years mazout would have been chosen as main fuel.
Annual heat would have been provided with 22,000 MWh mazout and 14,000 MWh light oil.
The baseline emissions of CO2 during 15 years is calculated to 116820 tons.
2) Estimated emissions with the activity:
Annual heat after the new project is assumed to be provided with 25,000 MWh biofuels and 10,000 MWh mazout.
1,000 Mwh is assumed to be saved by the new substations. The emissions are calculated from the ultimate
analysis of the assumed fuels.
The emissions are calculated from the ultimate analysis of the assumed fuel mentioned in above baseline.

Schematically, the transfer of knowledge involves the following activities over time:
i) Technology transfer through NUTEKs technical specialist during the implementation of the
project.
ii) Technology transfer through cooperation between foreign supplier and local partner
iii) Conferences, seminars, documentation and training.
iv) Stimulate "net-working" for the exchange of experience between plant owners with
similar problems, e g "bio-clubs"
|
Technology transfer will take place through
i) NUTEK’s technical specialist support to the local project leader and municipality.
iii) personal from boiler plant has been invited to different seminars and work-shops,
