THE IMPACT OF LIMITED CO2 EMISSION ON THE OPERATION OF THE PLANED NEW BLOCK IN TPP PLOMIN

U radu su ukratko prikazane očekivane međunarodne obveze u pogledu smanjenja emisija stakleničkih plinova za post-Kyotsko razdoblje, kao i pravila koja će vladati u EU sustavu trgovanja emisijama nakon 2012. godine, kada se očekuje ulazak Hrvatske u EU i uključivanje hrvatskih postrojenja u EU sustav trgovanja emisijama. U fokusu rada je analiza utjecaja ograničene emisije stakleničkih plinova na rad planiranog novog bloka C (500 MWe) u termoelektrani Plomin. Prikazane su emisije CO2 iz TE Plomin 1 i 2, ali i očekivane emisije u razdoblju do izgradnje novog bloka C te nakon njegovog puštanja u pogon do 2030. godine. Razmotren je i doprinos moguće naknadne ugradnje tehnologije za izdvajanje i skladištenje CO2 na smanjenje emisija iz TE Plomin. Budući da se očekuje da će Hrvatska biti dio EU prije završetka izgradnje TE Plomin C, nužno je voditi računa o utjecaju ograničene emisije CO2 na rad novog i postojećih blokova u termoelektrani Plomin.

TPP Plomin; CO2 emission; EU emission trading scheme; carbon capture and storage technologies

The article briefly presents predicted international obligations of greenhouse gas emission reduction for the post-Kyoto period and defined rules of the EU emission trading scheme beyond 2012, when the Croatian joining to the EU and inclusion of Croatian facilities in the EU emission trading scheme are expected. In the focus of the article is the analysis of limited greenhouse gas emission on the operation of the paned new block C (500 MWe) in TPP Plomin. The CO2 emissions from TPP Plomin 1 and 2 were shown, as well as projected emissions in the period before and after start of operation of the new block C, until 2030. The contribution of possible postponed implementation of the carbon capture and storage technology on CO2 emission reduction from TPP Plomin was considered. It is necessary to take account of the CO2 limitation, since Croatia should be the member of the EU before the start of operation of the new block C in TPP Plomin.
