Renewable Energy – Solutions for application in the communal energy infrastructure
This brochure contains a selection of successful renewable energy solutions suitable for a range of applications for local and national municipalities and economies. The main energy end-use sectors and the current state of the energy transition are briefly explained to provide readers with an understanding of the transformation of the greater energy system. The renewable energy technology options are explained, including their relevance and applications for municipalities. Finally, a selection of exemplary projects that have been successfully implemented in Europe, the Russian Federation and Central Asia, are included to demonstrate real applications and use-cases for renewable solutions. Renewable energies are cheap, clean and versatile.

Kyrgyzstan: Solar power <strong>for</strong> a children’s home<br />
S<strong>in</strong>ce mid-2015, a photovoltaic system has been generat<strong>in</strong>g<br />
solar power <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> children’s home <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> capital<br />
Bishkek. Around 100 boys and girls live <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> “Rehabilitation<br />
Center <strong>for</strong> Homeless Children”. They benefit<br />
from <strong>the</strong> <strong>energy</strong> costs saved by solar power. Numerous<br />
groups of visitors have already learned about <strong>energy</strong><br />
generation with <strong>the</strong> help of <strong>the</strong> photovoltaic system,<br />
<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g company representatives, students and<br />
teachers alike.<br />
With a module area of 101 square metres, <strong>the</strong> system<br />
has an <strong>in</strong>stalled capacity of 16.38 kilowatts. It produces<br />
approximately 222,500 kilowatt hours of electricity per<br />
year. In summer, <strong>the</strong> photovoltaic system covers <strong>the</strong><br />
children’s home’s monthly demand of 1,800 kilowatt<br />
hours. In w<strong>in</strong>ter, as well as throughout <strong>the</strong> year, it<br />
keeps <strong>the</strong> power supply stable. The solar power avoids<br />
carbon dioxide emissions of around 7,430 kilograms<br />
annually.<br />
After preparation toge<strong>the</strong>r with Kyrgyz partners, R.I.D.<br />
GmbH <strong>in</strong>stalled <strong>the</strong> plant. It was built as part of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Renewable</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Solutions</strong> Programme of <strong>the</strong> German<br />
<strong>Energy</strong> Agency (dena) of which is part of <strong>the</strong> “<strong>Energy</strong><br />
Export Initiative” of <strong>the</strong> Federal M<strong>in</strong>istry <strong>for</strong> Economic<br />
Affairs and <strong>Energy</strong>.<br />
Tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g on <strong>in</strong>stallation, ma<strong>in</strong>tenance and service took place<br />
both <strong>in</strong> Bishkek and <strong>in</strong> Germany directly at <strong>the</strong> company R.I.D.
