Capítulo 54: Chapter 54
After acquiring the 'synthetic ammonia' technology, Edel continued to care about the Romanian industrial construction led by himself.
After more than three years of construction, a large number of factories have been established in Bucharest, Constanta, Ploiesti, etc. The large factories have all kinds of supporting facilities, but in the small factories with dozens of people, there are not so good conditions.
Now Edel is looking at statistics in this area, and the most nervous thing now is electricity. In several industrial cities, due to the existence of large factories, the power supply is fairly good. However, there are also power curtailments, coupled with the situation of living electricity, the demand will continue to increase in the next few years.
"We can only expect the royal family to pay for infrastructure." Edel is also very troubled by this. Now the government's finances are more difficult to deal with the reorganization of the army. It is still completed under the premise that the factory has gradually increased in the past two years and the fiscal revenue has increased. of.
If the previous economic situation remains, the government will not be able to spend money to make emergency plans. Prior to Prime Minister Sturley, because the government was short of money, he failed to pay enough salaries to the officials below. After being talked about by lower-level officials, these voices disappeared after they were finally made up.
"Go and invite Mr. Hirschmann consultant." Edel ordered to the chief guard. Now the crown prince needs to understand the future growth trend of power supply in order to purposely reduce the occurrence of this kind of situation.
The next day Edel met Herlsman in the office. As a German, Hersmann has the rigor that is unique to Germany, and is extremely responsible for his own work, and occasionally likes to travel and appreciate the beautiful scenery of various places.
"I have seen your Highness, and I don't know what I can do for the crown prince." Hellsmann knew that the crown prince must have something to find himself, so he asked directly.
"Hellsman, you are an electric power expert. Do you have any good suggestions for Romania's current power shortage?" The crown prince asked Herssman, hoping that he could give professional advice.
Helsman has been working in Romania for several years. Before that, he worked at Siemens and later as a technical expert in a small thermal power plant in Romania. Later, Edel met him during the inspection, and the crown prince felt that Hirschmann was quite capable. After paying for the goods in Germany, he was asked to be his own consultant, specializing in consulting on electricity for Edel.
"The crown prince, the problem of the current shortage of electricity is that Romania's industry is developing rapidly, and the construction of power plants has not kept up due to the large investment." Hersman said euphemistically, this is the purchase of equipment before Edel. Not thoughtful.
How could Edel couldn't hear what Hirschmann meant. He had no experience in introducing equipment and technology before, and he only took care of the more conspicuous industries such as steel, chemical, and military. At that time, only 10 5,000 KW generator sets were prepared. As a result, The prediction was very good, but the supporting small factories were not taken into consideration. In addition, the power plants were of the nature of large investment and low return, and almost no private capital investment was obtained, which made it look like it is now. (Capital likes high-return industries, such as investment in light industry, finance, etc.)
"Now I intend to change this phenomenon. I don't know what reasonable advice Mr. Herlsman can give me?" Edel also unambiguously stated his request directly.
Hearsman replied when he heard the crown prince's question. "I think the power facilities that are being built now need to take into account the development of the next few years. Romania has good hydropower resources and can build hydropower stations to solve the power supply problem of cities relying on rivers. Other cities can build thermal power plants nearby."
Edel heard the adviser's suggestion that the electricity produced by hydroelectric power plants is cheaper, but the initial investment is too large (3-4 times that of thermal power plants), and Edel intends to have money. The cost of thermal power station construction is still a bit more economical. The management pollution is serious, the personnel cost is high, and the operating cost is high. However, it is not time to consider this problem. We must first solve the problem if there is any.
"Mr. Counselor, can you predict Romania's electricity demand after a few years?" Edel asked about his most concerned topic.
"Okay, my lord, I expect Romania in a few years will need about 300 to 400,000 kilowatts of installed capacity to meet demand, of which Constanta will use a little more." Helsman faced the crown prince's question and said Made my own suggestion.
After a conversation between Crown Prince Edel and Hersman, he learned about the current electricity usage in Romania. Also have a general understanding of the future development of electric power
"Thank you very much for His Excellency Hersman's help. I will fully consider your suggestions." Edel said to Hersman, and then turned to the head of the guard after speaking. "Send Her Excellency Shechelsman for me."
Carust reached out his hand and said, guiding for Mr. Counselor. "Your Excellency Hersman, please."
Helsman nodded to the chief guard. "Thank you."
After Edel sent Hersman away~www.mtlnovel.com~, he was thinking about what the consultant said just now. At present, the price of a 10,000-kilowatt thermal power generating unit is about 15 to 18 thousand pounds. According to the minimum standard, a photovoltaic generator set costs 450,000 pounds, plus other supporting boilers, steam turbines, etc., at least 800,000 pounds to meet the minimum demand.
Edel knew that it would explode in just a few years, when Romania was back to usher in a period of rapid economic development. The amount estimated by Hersman is far from enough.
According to Edel's estimation, there is an installed capacity of 500,000 kilowatts to basically meet the needs. According to Edel's plan, it will take 1.4 million to 1.6 million pounds to meet the demand. Now the royal family's funds deduct the need to pay back the US goods and leave reserves. Only 3.14 million pounds can be used. The money Edel also has other uses, and only 1.2 million pounds was deducted, which is obviously not enough.
Even at this point, Edel sighed. Industry is difficult to build. I don't know how others easily established industrialization in books read in previous lives.
Edel thought about it carefully. There is no good way. He suddenly thought of a crisis that caused the downfall of a major power in the East. Perhaps this could be used to raise funds for his own power plant. But before that, we still need to consider the issue of power plant construction.
Edel called the Chief of the Guard Carust and asked him to send tender messages to Siemens in Germany and General Motors in the United States. The total installed capacity of a batch of thermal power plants needed to be built was 500,000 kWh. Soon there were two messages. On the desks of the company's top executives. Both companies attach great importance to large businesses worth around £1.5 million.
GM decided to send a company executive to lead the team to participate in this tender, and Siemens also decided to send a vice president to lead the team to participate.
