Background

The seven-unit, 1,373-MW coal-fired Nazarovskaya power station is owned by Nazarovskaya GRES-2 JSC which ultimately belongs to SUEK.[1][2]

The plant’s seven units were brought online between 1961 and 1968.[3][4][5]

Unit 7 was built already in 1968 with design capacity of 500MW, but could not achieve its projected capacity for 50 years.[6] Over 2011-2013 the unit was rebuilt, achieving initial capacity of 415 MW, this was stepped up to 433MW and later to 498MW, thanks to auxiliary equipment and technical adjustments.[7]

In November 2020, refurbishment of Units 1-6 was completed which increased their overall capacity by 65 MW.[8]

The power plant produced 2,599 million kWh of electricity in 2021, in 2020 generation was 2,560 million kWh.[9] In 2022, generation increased to 4,244 million kWh as a result of low hydrology of the Yenisei river coupled with growth in demand.[10]

In November 2023, a new generator to replace the old one at Unit 3 was installed. The capacity of the new generator is 165 MW and it will start working in 2024.[11][12] It is unclear whether the capacity of the station will increase by 20MW as a result as one source implied that the capacity is the same as that of the old unit (145MW).[12]

Incidents

In March 2022, one of the five pipes of the pulverizing plant collapsed at the station. Its replacement was scheduled to take place later in 2022. There were no injuries due to this incident.[13]

In February 2023, a large fire erupted at Unit 5 where an oil tank in the engine room caught fire. Unit 5 was planned for repairs in summer 2023 but due to the fire the repairs will start earlier. The fire took 3 hours to extinguish. It was also mentioned that Unit 6 was in cold reserve at that time.[14] It appeared that there were no casualties in the fire incident.
