The vital activity of the human race is absolutely impossible without the use of a wide variety of energy resources that people have learned to actively produce both from the bowels of the earth and from other sources. It has always been so and it is now. At the same time, the issue of developing assistive devices and mechanisms that help people to carry out such activities is especially acute today. Entire research institutes and specialized enterprises are working on the development of power units. Therefore, it is not surprising that power engineering remains a priority for many countries of the world, including Russia, because the development of this strategically important area can bring the state to a fundamentally new level of technological and economic potential.
Industry Brief
Power engineering is a powerful industry division specializing in the creation of parts, assemblies and assemblies for nuclear energy, various power plants, boiler houses and other similar installations.
It is noteworthy that even in the conditions of a severe economic crisis, this industry continued its work, although it slightly reduced production volumes. This fact is not surprising, since the need for technology in this area remains at the same level.
Russian power
Power engineering in the Russian Federation is represented by a fairly large number of enterprises (more than 50). The work of domestic machine builders, of course, is experiencing some difficulties with stable technological connections and a lack of modernization, however, work in this direction is quite active and can even be said successfully. The presence of investment programs, retraining of old staff and the selection of young and energetic specialists, getting in touch with foreign partners - all this together allows us to carry out long-term planning for the development of the industry with firm confidence in its steady progress.
HR potential
Several universities operate in the country, in which "power engineering" is a specialty that thousands of students study. The educational process is focused on the study of the leading innovations in the global creation of energy generating facilities. The best students practice abroad. After graduation, many young energy engineers become employees of machine-building enterprises, making their contribution to their progression.
Moscow Giant
The Chekhov Power Engineering Plant is located 70 km south of Moscow. Its history as an enterprise began in September 1942. The plant had a significant impact on the recovery process of post-war TPPs, which almost all were destroyed and could not perform their functions. The main activity vectors of this strategically important object are:
- Design and construction of fittings for pipelines and other spare parts.
- Conducting research, introducing new products to life.
- The provision of services for the repair, operation and maintenance of products sold.
- Valve testing and certification.
The Chekhov Power Engineering Plant designs and manufactures steam and water components for working environments, thereby helping to develop the chemical, oil and gas and other industries. The working pressure of the plant fittings can withstand up to 400 atmospheres, temperature up to 650 degrees Celsius.
Among the manufactured parts are:
- Gate valves.
- Check valves.
- Stop valves.
- Safety valves.
- Impulse valves.
- Throttle control equipment
The entire list of components coming off the assembly line of the plant passes strict technical control and is in accordance with international standards.
Oil and Gas Partner
Penza Power Engineering Plant is actively cooperating with the giants of the Russian economy: Rosneft, Lukoil, Bashneft and others. In addition, the plant’s products are operated in metallurgy, chemical plants and other energy-intensive facilities.
In general, the Penza plant of power engineering is the production of a wide range of equipment, namely:
- Various capacitive devices designed for pressure within 200 atmospheres.
- Capacitive equipment.
- Equipment for a variety of tanks.
- Stop valves.
The work of the enterprise is focused not only on the domestic market, but also on customers from abroad.
Industrial engine of Altai
Barnaul plant of power engineering is today one of the most modern and developed enterprises in the Altai region. The plant supplies draft fans (smoke exhausters and fans). The quality of the company's products is confirmed by international quality certificates, as well as the relevant permit of Rostekhnadzor.
The Barnaul power engineering plant has the widest geography of supplies of manufactured equipment, which, in addition to Russia, is supplied to Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Spain, Germany, Finland, Mexico, Armenia, India, Holland, the USA, Great Britain, Poland, Switzerland, Belgium, Greece.
The nomenclature of the enterprise includes such goods:
- Smoke exhausters of various specializations (for hot gases, mill, special and others).
- Fans.
- Exhausters.
- Boilers.
- Stations of liquid lubrication.
- Coils.
- Collectors.
- Non-standard products and spare parts.
The management of the plant is making efforts so that the range of manufactured units is maximally expanded, and the renewal of fixed assets takes place regularly.
The authority of Russian engineers
It is known that power engineering is a specialty in demand in the engineering environment. And therefore, it becomes clear that a highly skilled specialist in this field will always be provided with well-paid work. Domestic developers have proven themselves in the circle of professionals and enjoy well-deserved respect among foreign colleagues. Some new Russian-made products today are leaders who have no analogues in the world.
Any Russian power engineering plant in modern conditions considers it especially important and possible to introduce completely new production facilities to ensure the competitiveness of the enterprise. Such steps invariably lead to a positive result.
Government priorities
Note that power engineering is a source of state budget revenues, the contribution of which is difficult to overestimate. Thanks to the sale of products abroad, foreign exchange earnings are formed that positively affect the solvency and economic power of the country. The government leadership pays close attention to the development of the industry, supporting its progressive dynamics through the adoption of the most important normative acts. So, on April 15, 2014, a resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation was approved, in which the main points and directions for raising the level of technical re-equipment and entering a new round of modernization of old equipment were announced.
