Topic: GOELRO plan


In the News (Sat 26 Dec 09)

  
  GOELRO plan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GOELRO plan (Russian: план ГОЭЛРО) was the first ever Soviet plan of recovery and development of the state economy, a prototype of Five Year Plans.
GOELRO is the transliteration of the Russian abbreviation for "State Commission for Electrification of Russia" (Государственная комиссия по электрификации России).
The commission and the plan were created by an initiative and supervision of Vladimir Lenin himself, whose understanding of the importance of the undertaking are summarized in his popular say: "Socialism is the Soviet power plus electrification of the whole country".

The only serious work on the subject is the Plan for the Electrification of the R.S.F.S.R., the report of GOELRO (the State Commission for the Electrification of Russia) to the Eighth Congress of Soviets, published in December 1920 and distributed at the Congress.
Of course, “plans” naturally give rise to endless argument and discussion, but when the task is to get down to the study of the only scientific plan before us, we should not allow ourselves to engage in general statements and debates about underlying “principles".
The task of the Communists inside GOELRO is to issue fewer orders, rather, to refrain from issuing any at all, and to be very tactful in their dealings with the scientists and technicians (the R.C.P. Programme says: “Most of them inevitably have strong bourgeois habits and take the bourgeois view of things”).

 Foundation of Gosplan, 1921
A General Planning Commission, attached to the Council of Labour and Defence, is established to devise a single all-state economic plan based on the electrification plan approved by the VIII Congress of Soviets, and to supervise the overall implementation of this plan.
All planning proposals arising in commissariats and departments on matters of the state economy, and production programmes to implement it, must be submitted to the State General Planning Commission for examination and co-ordination with the all-state economic plan.
As can be seen from this statute establishing the commission, it was originally intended primarily as a means to implement the celebrated GOELRO plan for the electrification of all Russia, mooted at the end of 1920.

According to the Dawes Plan, they are to be placed at Germany's disposal in order that she may be able to squeeze something out of them and have the wherewithal to make reparation payments to Europe, which, in its turn, must make payments to America on account of state debts.
The whole plan is well constructed, but it reckons without the host, for it means for the German people a double yoke -- the yoke of the German bourgeoisie on the German proletariat, and the yoke of foreign capital on the whole German people.
The GOELRO plan in 1921 provided for the erection in the course of 10-15 years of thirty electric power stations of a total capacity of 1,500,000 kw.

A number of letters set out major propositions on the substance and importance of NEP, which, Lenin said, should be viewed in the context of the general tasks and prospects of socialist construction, and in the light of the GOELRO plan, which was designed to lay the economic foundation of the new society.
The principal task of NEP was to ensure a strong alliance between the working class and the peasantry, as the highest principle of the dictatorship of the proletariat, the basis of the Soviet power.
The transition to NEP called for a restructuring of economic management, strict practice of the principle of democratic centralism, improvement in planning, development of local initiative, extension of the rights of enterprises, introduction of material incentives and economic accounting, and operation of enterprises at a profit.

The plan was briefly as follows: the division of generating and network facilities, state control over the networks, and liberalization of prices for electric power..
Anatoly Chubais had his own plans on this score: he proposed the creation of two or three generating companies on the basis of the concern, preserving the status of nuclear power plants as unitary state enterprises of the RF Ministry for Atomic Energy.
According to the plan, final formation of the generating companies is contemplated for 2006; however, UES has already received the first funds: on October 11, the EBRD jointly with a consortium of major investment banks decided to allocate credits for 100 million euros to the power holding.

While the collectivization plan was a domestic creation, the projects of labor discipline and rapid technical training (the replacement of old bourgeois experts with Red experts) bore the marks of the Russian experience with Taylorism.

Even in the fossil fuel-rich Middle East and North Africa, renewable energy use is growing rapidly: Syria announced plans to invest $1.5 billion in renewable energy by 2011, Turkey is currently developing 440 MW of wind projects, and Egypt is developing wind and solar power on a large scale.

Concessions were an important element of the rehabilitation of the Russian heavy industries, for example, of the GOELRO Plan that envisaged development of the production forces of the country on the basis of its electrification.

Ever since the concession draft law has migrated from one legal development plan of the Duma to another and ever so slowly goes along the legislative pipeline with no end in sight until very recently.
