    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps. If you are looking for a certain part of Russia Find the appropriate index map. These show the borders of the detailed maps for different parts of the country.

Kupressova, Sergey V. Romanenko INO Tomsk Centre for Resource Saving and Energy Efficiency, Belinskogo Street, 51, Tomsk, Russian Federation, 634034 [email protected] There is a significant number of decentralized energy sources in the energy system of the Tomsk region (Russia). Heat supply sources are represented by boiler houses on solid (coal, wood, chips) and liquid fuel (oil). Besides technical factors, such as high percentage of wear of equipment used for power supply, low efficiency of energy production, loss of heat energy in transfer, there are important economic problem in the decentralized energy producing in the Tomsk region. High cost of fuel transportation to remote settlements determines high tariffs for heat and electricity supply, which makes it necessary to provide subsidies for the population. A decision system has been developed to switch decentralized heat sources with low energy consumption to local and renewable fuels in the region. The scheme takes into account the practical use of long-term studies of local and renewable energy sources potential in the Tomsk region. Results of the work of scientists and the Administration of the Tomsk Region are presented in Geo-information system (2018).

The article deals with application potential of clean alternative renewable energy sources. By means of system analysis the forecast for consumption of electrical energy in Tomsk Oblast as well as main energy sources of existing energy system have been studied up to 2018. Engineering potential of renewable and alternative energy sources is evaluated. Besides, ranking in the order of their efficiency descending is performed. It is concluded that Tomsk Oblast has high potential of alternative and renewable energy sources, among which the most promising development perspective is implementation of gasification stations to save fuel consumed by diesel power stations as well as building wind-power plants. 1. Introduction In recent years increasingly greater attention is paid to the problems of utilizing clean alternative renewable energy sources to meet energy supply demands in different agricultural and industrial spheres. The relevance and perspectiveness of the given trend are conditioned by the two key factors: catastrophic situation in the environment and necessity of searching for new kinds of energy [1].
