MMK changes the approach to investment projects

​MMK has started to realize low-budget investment projects with short periods of payback.

The list of projects for realization with a short period of payback of not longer than 2 years is formed from the suggestions submitted by the subdivisions of MMK. On the results of H1 2015 over 50 low-budget investment projects of the 2nd category of difficulty aimed for the rise of energy efficiency were at the stage of working out and realization.

The first stage consists of 26 projects with the average payback period of 1.22 years, the 2nd -28 projects with the average payback period of 0.97 year. The project of reconstruction of heat exchangers of heating furnaces of the hot-rolling mill-2000 is realized separately.

The program of capital construction of MMK in 2015 plans the amount of 300 mln roubles for the realization of these projects. The main parameter of the decision on further realization of the project is the payback period – not longer than 2.1 years, taking into account the equipment cost after the procedure of choosing the supplier. In conformity with the periods of production and equipment supply in 2015 it is planned to spend 224 mln roubles, in 2016 – about 458 mln roubles. The forecast total annual effect from the implementation of the planned low-budget high-efficiency projects will make up 511.3 mln roubles.
