Background

The 1,274-MW coal-fired Krasnoyarsk GRES-2 power station was originally owned by OGK-2, which belonged to Gazprom. In December 2019 SUEK agreed to buy the plant from Gazprom for 10 billion roubles.[1] The sale was completed in February 2020.[2] SUEK took over the operations at the plant in October 2020.[3] In January 2020, JSC TGC-13 (Yenisei TGC), a subsidiary of SUEK, became the new owner.[4]

The plant’s nine units were brought online between in three phases: Units 1-4 in 1961, Units 5-7 in 1978, and Units 8-9 in 1983.[5][6][3][7]

In 2021 the plant generated 1,690 million kWh of electricity, in 2020 it was 1,750 million kWh.[8] Electricity generation in 2022 reached 4,219 million kWh.[9] The steep increase in electricity generation in 2022 was driven by low hydrology of Yenisei river coupled with growth in demand.[10] In January0August 2023, generation increased by 60% compared with 2021, again due to low hydrology of Yenisey. From July 2023, generation was close to 2022 levels.[11]

Modernization

In 2021, SUEK completed modernization upgrades to the power station's transmission equipment, which increased the total capacity of the power station from 1,260 to 1,274 MW.[12][13] In May 2022, the power plant was undergoing modernization which included an overhaul of the turbine unit #5 and two associated boilers. After the modernization is completed at this unit, unit 4 was expected to be modernized next.[14] In February 2022, turbine generator #1 was also refurbished.[15]

The System Operator's document published in early 2023 showed no planned capacity increases in 2023-2028 at the plant.[16]
