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
CHP-23 is one of Mosenergo's largest power plants, it provides electricity and heat to the Eastern, partially North-Eastern and Central administrative districts of Moscow, a population of over 2 million people.In the late 1950s, rapid housing construction and high rates of industrial growth in Moscow required additional generation of electricity and heat. The Executive Committee of the Moscow City Council decided to build the Izmailovo (CHP-23) thermal power plant, and already on December 17, 1966, the first unit was commissioned with a T-100-130 turbine, a TGM-96 boiler, a TVF-100-2 generator with an electric power of 100 MW and a thermal power of 160 Gcal/ h. In 1967, the construction and installation of the second turbine and the second boiler of the same capacity were complete. In 1968, the third and fourth turbines and the third and fourth power boilers were put into operation. In 1975-1982, four power units with T-250/300-240 turbines and TGMP-314Ts power boilers were put into operation.[11]
Since 1997, CHPP-23 enters a qualitatively new period of its development - the period of renewal of the main and auxiliary equipment. As part of the reconstruction program, the first turbine T-100-130 was replaced with a new, more modern T-110/120-130. In 2008, the second turbine T-100-130 was replaced with a turbine of modification T-110/120-130-5 with an air-cooled generator. In 2014, a number of heat generating facilities were transferred to the management of CHP-23 - RTS "Babushkino-2", KTS-8 (decommissioned in 2015), as well as operating mini-CHP "Izmailovo", RTS "Babushkino-1", RTS Rostokino.The location of CHP-23 in close proximity to the residential area of the Metrogorodok area imposes on it a special responsibility for compliance with environmental legislation in the field of protection of the air and water basins, as well as protection from noise impact. CHP-23 is one of the first Mosenergo plants to implement a system of continuous emission monitoring and accounting. Over the past years, no violation of the established environmental norms was registered. To reduce the noise impact on the adjacent territory, a number of innovative projects have been implemented at CHPP-23. Silencers are installed in the main safety valves (GPK) of all power boilers of the TGM-96 and TGMP-314 types, silencers are installed at gas distribution points (GRP-2 and GRP-3) and compressors. To reduce noise from cooling towers and autotransformers, special noise screens were installed at CHPP-23.[11]
Modernization
Based on the memorandum, signed between Mosenergo and the Ural Turbine Works, five Mosenergo power units will be modernized and commissioned between 2024 and 2027. The total capacity of the turbines to be supplied by the Ural Turbine Works amounts to 1 GW. The first upgraded turbine, model T-110/120 (Unit 4R), was commissioned in June 2024 at CHP-23 with the capacity of 110 MW.[12] In December 2024, work is scheduled to begin on the modernization project for Unit 3, which will include the installation of a turbine of the same type. In 2026, reconstruction of Unit 7 is planned, during which the turbine will be replaced with a T-250/300 model.[13]
These upgrades aim to enhance the efficiency and operational reliability of the power plant, aligning with modern standards and ensuring sustained energy output. According to the "Scheme and Program for the Development of Electric Power System of Russia for 2025–2030", released by the Russian Ministry of Energy in November 2024, units 3 and 7 will be replaced by units 3R and 7R in 2027. The installed capacity of Unit 3R will reach 110 MW and Unit 7R - 259 MW. [14] As of March 2025, there have not been any further updates.
