Download or read book Soviet Natural Resources in the World Economy written by Robert G. Jensen and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1983-08 with total page 910 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia is a huge storehouse of natural resources, including oil, gas, and other energy sources, which she can trade with the rest of the world for advanced technology and wheat. In this book, leading experts evaluate the Soviet potential in major energy and industrial raw materials, giving special attention to implications for the world economy to the end of the twentieth century. The authors examine the mineral and forest resources that the Soviet Union has developed and may yet develop to provide exports during the 1980s. They discuss the regional dimension of these resources, especially in Siberia and the Soviet Far East; individual mineral raw materials, such as petroleum, natural gas, timber, iron ore, manganese, and gold; and finally the role of raw materials in Soviet foreign trade. The authors, representing the United States, Canada, and Great Britain, are primarily geographers, but they include economists, political scientists, and a geologist. Their work is based on primary sources (for most of these reports, current information is no longer being released to researchers) and on interviews with Soviet officials.

Download or read book Energy Pricing in the Soviet Union written by Mr.Manmohan S. Kumar and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1991-12-01 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy exports, which are already the primary source of Soviet convertible currency earnings and an important contributor to the budget, could bring in much more revenue if the Soviet Union were to reduce its extremely high levels of energy consumption. To encourage this process, energy prices need to be raised substantially. Under plausible assumptions, it is shown that an increase in prices could yield sizable foreign exchange earnings. Large increases in energy prices could, however, threaten the solvency of industrial enterprises, precipitate major economic and social dislocation, and severely strain interrepublican economic relationships.
Download or read book The Transportation of Soviet Energy Resources written by Matthew J. Sagers and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 1986 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Soviet Union contains the world's largest supply of crude energy resources; transporting these resources from production to consumption sites over the sixth-largest landmass in the world presents persistent and serious problems for the Soviet Union. Using 1980 as a base year (the most recent year for which reasonably complete statistics are available), an energy-transportation system for each of the main energy resources (natural gas, petroleum, refined products, coal, and electricity) is modeled as an abstract network of production and demand sites, and transport linkages. Applying a network allocation model to each abstracted system supplies information that determines the general pattern of movement for each energy form, identifies inefficiency-producing constraints in the transportation system, and evaluates the prospects for future development.

Download or read book Renewables in Russia written by Elena Douraeva and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia has several sources of energy, oil, gas and coal as well as wind, hydro, geothermal, biomass and solar energy - the resources of renewable energy. At the moment it is the fossil fuels that dominate Russia's energy sources whilst the renewable sources are little used. Russia's renewables can cost-effectively provide energy services where conventional forms are expensive. Established renewable technologies can cost effectively supplement energy from fossil fuels. Whilst new renewables like wind and solar energy can serve remote populations and in the right circumstances provide energy at competitive prices on the grid.
