Background
The power station was built and first started operating in 1898.[7] By 1927, the capacity of the station reached 68 MW. At that time, the country's largest turbine with a capacity of 30 MW was operating at the station. In the 1960s the first combined cycle unit was put into operation at the station, which worked for about 10 years.[7]Since 2017, two new gas turbine units with a capacity of 100 MW have been put into operation. They provide power to the most important industrial, economic, cultural facilities of the Central and Admiralteisky districts of St. Petersburg, as well as electric transport substations.[7]
