Ilim Group Planted 4 Million Seedlings in the Irkutsk Region As Part of Reforestatio… 11/2/2020 Ilim Group planted 4 million seedlings in the Irkutsk region within the framework of reforestation | Irkutsk news, Irkutsk region (https://world-weather.ru/pogoda/russia/irkutsk/) -4 ° C 2.0 m / s SE, 725 mmHg Art., 92% home (https://snews.ru/) " Ilim Group planted 4 million seedlings in the Irkutsk region as part of reforestatio… Ilim Group planted 4 million seedlings in the Irkutsk region as part of reforestation January 30, 2020 - 11:34 The Ilim Group planted 4 million seedlings in the Irkutsk Region last year to grow forests. Of these, 1.8 million are with a closed root system. In general, the company in 2019 used 6.4 million seedlings for forest reproduction (50% of them with a closed root system). As a reminder, during a working visit to Bratsk, Acting Governor of the Irkutsk Region Igor Kobzev and the head of the Federal Forestry Agency Sergei Anoprienko visited the facilities of the Ilim Group. In particular, they visited a tree nursery, where planting material with a closed root system is grown by the order of Ilim. This makes it possible to improve the quality of forest reproduction due to the better survival rate of seedlings, and also allows to increase the planting time, explained Yuri Popov, director of the branch of JSC Ilim Group in the Bratsk region. Representatives of the regional authorities and Rosleskhoz also visited the sites for the production of cardboard and softwood pulp at the Ilim Group mill. The guests were shown production capacity, told about investment projects in the Irkutsk region. Ilim is implementing a project to modernize production in Bratsk and Ust-Ilimsk, as a result of which the volume of production will increase by 500 thousand tons per year. The total investment in the project until 2023 will amount to $ 860 million. In 2018, the Bolshoi Ust-Ilimsk project was launched: the construction of a new pulp and cardboard mill in Ust-Ilimsk will allow producing 600 thousand tons of containerboard per year.

    Development of Gazprom’s Giant Fields in Eastern Siberia: Challenges and Solutions By: Pavel Tsybulsky, General Director, Ph.D. Dmitriy Lugai, Deputy General Director, Doctor of Sc. Gazprom VNIIGAZ LLC Main targets and factors of gas production development in Russia Targets • Reliable supply to the domestic market • Maintaining and strengthening Russia’s position on the global energy market Factors influencing gas production in Russia • Growing national economy and energy consumption • Decreasing energy intensity of the national economy • Growing world economy and energy consumption worldwide • Growing international competition • Re-estimation of sustainable development based on gas production as the best energy supplier. There are factors favoring the growth of gas production in Russia and there are factors impeding this growth. There is need to develop gas export as well as to diversify gas sales markets. Growing international competition might weaken the Russia’s position in world gas market. This represents a certain threat to the national economic interests. Increasing of gas production & decreasing of energy intensity of the national economy can be an additional source for gas export. 2 Forecasts of gas production in Russia Current long-term and mid-term forecasts of Russian gas production significantly exceed the Energy Strategy adopted in 2009. Forecasts of gas production General Plan of gas 997 3 in Russia, bn м industry development 981 941 Ministry of economic 815–920 development forecast 850 IEA forecast 885–940 670 803–837 The Energy Strategy 2010 2020 2030 IEA forecasts through 2030 an average increase of gas production – 1.9 % in the world and 1.7 % in Russia yearly It creates the need for further development of the mineral resource base of gas industry and field development in new regions.

On the first stage the existing state of district heating system of Irkutsk region (Eastern Siberia) was analysed. On the second stage the choice of municipal units is considered as the Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) problem. The authors selected the most valuable criteria such as tariffs, subsidies and etc. that are rather sensitive for consumers and budget. The Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was applied to identify the priority municipal units for implementing energy efficiency measures.

  • Modeling of Logging Industry Dynamics Under the Global Climate Change: the Evidence from Siberian Regions
    Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 2020 13(11): 1870–1879 DOI: 10.17516/1997-1370-0691 УДК 330.15;551.583 Modeling of Logging Industry Dynamics Under the Global Climate Change: the Evidence from Siberian Regions Anna V. Chugunkova* Siberian Federal University Krasnoyarsk, Russian Federation Received 14.06.2020, received in revised form 19.10.2020, accepted 13.11.2020 Abstract. As a part of global economy, forestry experiences influence of diverse factors and global climate change in particular, which can affect forestry directly or indirectly via changes in qualitative and quantitative assessment of forest growing stocks, and in positive or negative manner. Climate change effects on Russian forestry are still poorly studied and call for more attention in policy-making. One of the direct impacts is shortening of winter logging season duration, which may result in decreasing wood harvests. Using the data on logging volumes in Krasnoyarsk Krai and Irkutsk Oblast and estimated duration of winter logging season on meteorological stations for the retrospective period of 1966- 2018, eight ARDL models were evaluated. The modeling results supported the idea of dependence of harvested wood volumes on winter logging season duration across all considered meteorological stations. To reduce negative impacts on logging industry in terms of wood harvest reduction, adaptation activities in forestry are sorely needed. Keywords: global climate change, forestry, logging season, logging volumes, autoregressive distributed lag model. The study was funded by the Russian Science Foundation (project 19-18-00145). Author thanks Dr. Anton I. Pyzhev for helpful comments and suggestions on time-series modeling.

However, it is often at the center of extractive activity and inflicts major impact on environment and communities. This paper examines the benefits and impacts derived from development of informal roads, i.e., vehicular roadways beyond the current publicly-governed road networks constructed, maintained and/or used by various entities and individuals based on private, special purpose and/or informal practices and regulations. Based on several field studies, GIS analysis of road networks and examination of secondary sources, the article investigates the use of informal roads as a form of benefit-sharing and details their impact on mobilities, environment and livelihoods of local and indigenous communities in the Irkutsk Oil and Gas region, Russia.
