Background
Modernization of unit 4, including replacement of the high-pressure cylinder, the medium-pressure cylinder of the turbine with reheat steam, the replacement of pipelines for live steam, feed water and reheat, increased the capacity from 300 MW to 330 MW in 2022.[8] Analogous modernization of units 2 & 7 in 2023, units 3 & 5 in 2024, unit 6 in 2025, and unit 1 in 2026 is planned.[8] Modernization will increase the total capacity of the plant by 210 MW compared to 2021 levels.
