Background
Construction works of Cheboksary CHP-2 power station started in 1957 but paused until 1973. The power station was built and put into operation in 1979.[6]
In 1994 the power station was converted from coal to gas as a primary fuel.
Currently, the station is a reliable supplier of heat and electricity for half of the city of Cheboksary. And with the decommissioning and dismantling of the obsolete CHPP-1 in 2011, all former consumers of CHPP-1 were connected to the Cheboksary CHPP-2.
