CHP is an abbreviation for Combined Heat and Power. It is a technology that produces electricity and thermal energy at high efficiencies. Coal units track this information in the Captive Use section when known.

Background

CHPP-21 is Europe's largest producer of thermal energy. More than 3 million people live in the heat supply zone of the power plant.The construction of CHPP-21 began in March 1960. In August 1964, work was completed on the construction of the first stage of the power plant, consisting of three power units with a total capacity of 300 MW. A year later, the construction of the second stage began with an increase in the electric capacity of CHPP-21 to 600 MW. From 1973 to 1983, four power units were put into operation at CHPP-21, its installed electric capacity reached 1290 MW. After the replacement in 1989–1995 of obsolete turbine units No. 1–4, the plant's installed capacity increased to 1,330 MW.In accordance with the plan for the replacement of equipment that has reached the end of its lifetime, in 2006 the reconstruction of turbogenerator No. 5 of the T-100 type was carried out for T-110/120-130-5.In 2008, CHPP-21 commissioned a modern combined cycle power unit with an installed electric capacity of 425 MW and a thermal capacity of 300 Gcal/h. The efficiency of the power unit is about 51%.CHPP-21's efforts to reduce emissions include two-stage fuel combustion, flue gas recirculation at all power boilers, and reconstructed burners. Silencers are installed on all power boilers. In 2009, a desalination scheme based on ion-exchange technologies (IT) was introduced at HVO-2, designed to make up for losses in the steam condensate paths of the power units of the 130 atm line and the 240 atm line. Currently, at CHPP-21, work is underway to reconstruct neutralization units No. 1, 2.At CHPP-21, for the first time in PJSC Mosenergo, an information system based on controllers was put into operation, which made it possible to control, register emergency events, and archive the parameters of thermal processes. At present, CHPP-21 has one of the most developed and powerful information networks among Mosenergo's power plants.[1]
