Background

The single-unit 89.9-MW coal-fired Minusinskaya power station is owned by TGC-13, which in turn is owned by SUEK. The plant was brought online in 1997.[4][5]

The plant has 5 boilers and is fired by lignite coal from the Borodinsky coal mine.[5] The plant's capacity was increased by 5MW to 85MW in 2010 and later in 2021 to 89.8MW through recertification.[6][7]

The plant is the only supplier of heat to the city of Minusinsk.[5] In 2021, Minusinskaya power plant generated 432 million kWh of electricity, in 2020 it was 464 million kWh.[8]

In June 2022, an overhaul of the turbine was in progress and was completed in line with the schedule.[9][7][6]

A possibility to convert the plant to run on gas was mentioned in a media source in 2024, although the practical implementation was said to be debatable.[10]

The plant continued modernization efforts in 2024.[11] In February 2025, it was reported that Minusinskaya power station was preparing for its summer repair campaign, including major overhaul of boiler 4. Additional repair works on the high-pressure boiler of the main power unit were scheduled to continue from late May to late July, with a full station shutdown planned after the heating season to complete maintenance activities before winter.[12]

In 2025, routine technical maintenance of the station's main equipment was carried out as part of SGK's annual repair campaign across the Krasnoyarsk region, which covered 91 boilers and 33 turbines at a total cost of approximately 9 billion rubles (approximately $100 million).[13]
