The key priority in the activities of Mosenergo - the largest territorial generating company in Russia and the largest supplier of heat in the world – is to ensure reliable supply of heat and electricity to the consumers in Moscow and Moscow region. Last year the power plants of the Company generated 65 billion kWh of electricity, which is 5.2% more than in 2009. Heat delivery increased by 6.8% to 69.9 million Gcal. The share of generating capacities commissioned during the recent years in the total output of Mosenergo has been growing steadily. Electricity generation at the new power units grew in 2010 by 10.2% and amounted to 8 billion kWh. Construction of highly efficient combined cycle units with the efficiency in excess of 50%, implementation of the state-of-the-art power engineering technologies, replacement of the aged equipment are among the priority tasks of the Company. Achieving these tasks greatly improves technical performance of the power units, enhances fuel consumption efficiency and minimizes the environmental impact of the power plants. The Company is already a leader of the Russian power industry in terms of the rate of commissioning of new generating capacities. In 2007-2008, three new combined cycle steam-gas power units with the total rated power of 1,325 MW were commissioned at the power plants of Mosenergo; in 2010 construction of the SGU-420 Unit №8 of TPP-26 was completed. As of today, this is the most modern combined cycle plant Chairman of the Board in Russia, with the efficiency as high as 59%. of Directors of Mosenergo K.G. Seleznev Construction of the SGU-420 unit at TPP-12, SGU-420 units at TPP-16 and TPP-20 and GTE-65 gas turbine facility at TPP-9 pursuant to the capacity rendering agreements signed during the last year will result in the increase of the total installed capacity of the Company by 1,120 MW. These power units are scheduled to be commissioned in 2012-2014. The measures taken to reduce operational costs, ensure financial stability and improve personnel management methods and instruments were also aimed at improving overall efficiency of the Company.

  • Glass in Ancient and Medieval Eastern Europe As Evidence of International Contacts
    Archeologia Polski 61 (2016), pp. 191-212 Archeologia Polski, LXI: 2016 PL ISSN 0003-8180 Ekaterina STOLYAROVA GLASS IN ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL EASTERN EUROPE AS EVIDENCE OF INTERNATIONAL CONTACTS Abstract: This paper deals with glass artifacts as markers of interregional economic, religious and cultural links, trade routes, and social stratification. It is focused on finds from Eastern Europe from the Bronze Age to the 17th–18th centuries A.D. Keywords: glass beads, glass vessels, Eastern Europe, international links. Introduction Glass is one of the most ancient artificial materials possessing unique properties from which a variety of artifacts can be made. Among these are luxury artifacts and objects of applied art, tesserae for figured mosaics and stained glass, glass icons and ritual vessels, window-panes and tableware as well as small ornaments, i.e., arm rings, beads, fingerings, buttons and pendants. These artifacts were used in daily life, sold, donated, used to decorate clothes, interiors and architectural structures. They were symbols of their owner’s social and economic position. The value of glass as a historical source stems from its extensive application. Glass objects provide information on the formation and spread of glassmaking and on the place of glass in scientific concepts and the production of a given epoch. Chemical properties of glass and means of its production are of technological interest. Glass artifacts are important for the study of culture and daily life of a given epoch, e.g. the history of costume. Excavated glass objects are examined from the angle of their functions, peculiarities of their form and decoration, the spread and evolution of different type.
