Renewable Energies in Georgia

The development of alternative energy sources (wind, solar and geothermal energy) is an objective of Georgia’s State Energy Policy. This objective is also mentioned in the existing Law on Electricity and Gas19.

However, no specific targets were defined for the share of energy to be generated by renewable sources. There were discussions about drafting a more specific RE law20 in 2008. After the war from August 2008, however, these initiatives seem to have lost momentum.

The Government of Georgia has approved of a Renewable Energy 2008 State Program21, which regulates and supports the construction of new RE projects in Georgia with a capacity up to 100 MW. The program is designed to attract foreign investments. The program is largely focusing on the development of small and medium Hydro Power Plants. The Tax Code enacted in 2005 does not provide any tax benefits for the production, use, import and implementation of equipment for the production of RE or power saving equipment.

There are a number of relevant international documents for the development of RE sources in Georgia. These include the Energy Charter Treaty, the Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol, the Energy Community Treaty, the European Neighborhood Policy and others.For further details, please visit following link: http://www.gtz.de/de/dokumente/gtz2009-en-regionalreport-georgia.pdf

 

Evironmentally Clean Fuel Additive Petrox-1

In February 2009 “U.N. tech Ltd. Presented to our  Center new product gasoline additive Petrox-1, which has already been tested at the laboratory of Internal Combustion Engine, Department of Transport and Car Construction, Georgian Technical University. Currently UN. Tech Ltd is reorganized into Georgian Technologies.

Fuel additive Petrox-1, is already registered at:

Petrox--1 was registered by “The Georgian National Agency of Standards, Plural Regulations and  Metrology” in 23.02.09 (certificate #268-12005843)

Information about ecologicaly clean fuel additive – Petrox-1, from nontoxic ingredients

Petrox-1 does not change octane and cetane numbers of fuels. Petrox-1 operates on petrol and diesel, improves  the burning process and also: 1.      decreases pollutants CO – 45-50%, HC – 70-80%, NOx – 60-70% and decreases CO2 emission proportionally to fuel saving; 2.      decreases fuel consumption on the diesel vehicles - about 20%, on the petrol vehicles - about 30%; 3.      increases output power of engines - about 20-25%; 4.      cleans the feed system and the combustion chamber of engines and has anticorrosion properties; 5.      decreases temperature of freezing of fuel; 6.      decreases saturation vapor pressure of petrol; 7.      improves operation of engines and prolongs its operation life; 8.      has antiknock property; 9.      prolongs operation life of catalytic converter. The  dosage  of  additive  for  90-93 octane  petrol  is  1ml/10L,  for  95-98 octane  fuel – 1ml/20L, for  diesel – 1,4ml/10L.   Possible to use Petrox -1 with any kinds of fuel.   Petrox--1 was registered by “The Georgian National Agency of Standards, Plural Regulations and  Metrology” in 23.02.09 (certificate #268-12005843) and by US Environmental Protection Agency (with  the name of  “Petro-log”).

 

 

 

Environmentally Clean Fuel Additive Petrox-1

Petrox-1 does not change octane and cetane numbers of fuels.

Petrox-1 operates on petrol and diesel, improves  the burning process and also:

1.      decreases pollutants

CO – 45-50%,

HC – 70-80%,

NOx – 60-70%

and decreases CO2 emission proportionally to fuel saving;

2.      decreases fuel consumption

on the diesel vehicles - about 20%,

on the petrol vehicles - about 30%;

3.      increases output power of engines - about 20-25%;

4.      cleans the feed system and the combustion chamber of engines and has anticorrosion properties;

5.      decreases temperature of freezing of fuel;

6.      decreases saturation vapor pressure of petrol;

7.      improves operation of engines and prolongs its operation life;

8.      has antiknock property;

9.      prolongs operation life of catalytic converter.

 

The  dosage  of  additive 

for  90-93 octane  petrol  is  1ml/10L, 

for  95-98 octane  fuel – 1ml/20L,

for  diesel – 1,4ml/10L.

 

Possible to use Petrox -1 with any kinds of fuel.
