THOSE WHO WORKED DO NOT SHY AWAY FROM REPORTING
An urgent problem is the provision of heat and hot water to such a large metropolis as Almaty. Therefore, companies operating in this area are recognized as monopolists, whose activities cause constant discussions on the part of the townspeople. For example, one of the largest companies in the city, which is a subject of natural monopolies for the production of thermal energy, is JSC “Almaty power plants”. The company is included in the State Register of natural monopoly entities due to the fact that it produces thermal energy for the city of Almaty and the Almaty region and supplies water through main pipelines (prepares chemically treated water). In accordance with subparagraph 7-3 of paragraph 7, Article 7 of the law of the Republic of Kazakhstan” on natural monopolies and regulated markets”, annual public hearings of JSC” Ales ” have become a tradition.
On March 26, 2014, in the conference hall of CHPP – 1 of JSC” Ales”, a hearing was held before consumers and other interested parties on the report on the implementation of tariff estimates for the services of heat generation and water supply by main pipelines (preparation of chemically treated water) in 2013. The hearing was attended by director of the Department of the agency for regulation of natural monopolies in Almaty Dauren Zhandarbek, representatives of JSC “Samruk-Energo”, as well as independent experts, consumers, media representatives. Chairman of the Board of JSC “Ales” N. T. Mukhamed-Rakhimov reported at the hearing.
Last year, Almaty power plants JSC carried out a lot of work aimed at improving the efficiency of the power complex. In connection with this, we can name the completion of the construction of the boiler house, the introduction of a highway connecting CHPP 2 and CHPP 1. In his report, the chairman of the Board of JSC “Ales” N. T. Mukhamed-Rakhimov drew the audience’s attention to the activities of the company aimed at implementing the investment program.
In total, in 2013, the amount of funds disbursed in the implementation of investment measures by Ales JSC amounted to 9.2 billion US dollars.tenge. In particular, 877.4 million tenge was allocated for the construction of boiler houses, including collector water distribution and tank batteries.the tenge was spent. In order to reduce emissions of nitrous oxide, the restructuring of the combustion devices of boiler units at CHPP-1 amounted to 292.4 million tons. the work of the tenge has been done.
Speaking about the main financial and economic indicators of the activities of ales JSC in 2013, N. T. Mukhamed – Rakhimov noted that the company suffered losses in the amount of 815 million tenge in the production of thermal energy, and in the supply of water by main pipelines (chemically treated water) in the amount of 723.6 million tenge. According to the head, the main reason for the increase in costs for the production of thermal energy and the preparation of chemically treated water was the increase in fuel prices and prices for its transportation.
In addition, the report noted a decrease in the volume of heat energy consumption of heating networks by 14 percent, and the consumption of chemically treated water by 25 percent.
JSC “ales” has formed an investment program for 2014-2016.
In accordance with the long-term development strategy of ales JSC, the annual amount of modernization, reconstruction and maintenance of the current state of production in 2014-2022 amounted to млрд 111.4 billion. capital investments in tenge are planned.
Within the framework of the implementation of the investment program for the production of thermal energy – 13.1 billion rubles.”I don’t know,” he said.
Regulated service tariffs cannot compensate for the required amount of investment investments in full.
In this regard, during the analysis of the financial and economic results of the activities of ales JSC, it was found that the cost part of tariffs for regulated services is steadily increasing. The increase in the cost of generating heat energy and preparing chemically treated water was facilitated by an increase in prices for services provided by other organizations providing fuel and transporting it.
“However, the report showed that” “Almaty power plants “” JSC worked quite intensively over the past year.” Moreover, now there will be a time when they say that “those who work do not shy away from reporting to the public.”
