Sokolovska I. Development of scientific and methodological bases of improving the system of normative documents in the electric-power industry in Ukraine

Object of research - a system of standardization in the field of electric-power industry. Objectives - the development of scientific and technological bases of improving the system of normative documents (ND) in the electric-power industry of Ukraine using the concept of technical energy systems (TES) on the basis of determining the optimal areas of integrated standardization (IS) and the sequence of its implementation. Methods of research - system methods of structural technical and economic analysis, modular approach to modeling of application domain, theory of total quality management, theory of standardization, IS method, hierarchical classification method, method of expert evaluations, methods of mathematical statistics, methods of technical and economic assessment of investments, linear-programming technique. Novelty: the first time, a new approach to solving IS problems in the electric-power industry is developed on the basis of TES concept; structural model of the electric power industry is improved and hierarchical approach to ND collection creation is proposed; the first time, the generalized classification of standardization tasks and universal model of IS in the industries of fuel-energy complex (FEC) are developed; the IS model for the electric power is developed, list of standardization areas is determined, scientific and methodical base for the area priority assessment is developed; the methodological approaches to evaluating the economic efficiency of standards when standard is regarded as an investment project taking market, social, and environmental aspects into account were further developed. Practical importance: there are proposed the algorithms and tools that make it possible to create effectively the optimal programs of complex standardization (PCS) in any industry of the FEC (with correcting PCS in real time) and to determine the economic feasibility of specific standards on power equipment development and the optimal order of their introduction. The developed IS models and classification of standardization tasks can be used when creating ND catalogues in different FEC industries. Based on the results, there are developed: recommendations for PCS in the power sector for 2005-2010 and the priority of international standards harmonization (2008); GID 40.01.105:2005 - catalogue of standards in the FEC industries; methods and algorithms for optimizing the sequence of implementation of standards on power equipment.
