Background
This power plant provides power to Nadezhdinski Metallurgical Plant.[10]
In December 2021, the company has announced its plans to construct two new combined cycle units at this plant with capacity of 130-150 MW each by 2025-2026. The units will be built in addition to the currently operating units, location is unclear but may be separate from the existing plant.[11][12]
In January 2023, it was reported that such project could only be implemented using large-capacity gas turbines, most likely by foreign manufacturers. However, due to the sanctions imposed on Russia as a result of the invasion of Ukraine this option was not available, and Nornickel, was looking into building a nuclear power station. Another alternative is to purchase the gas turbines from a friendly country or initiate collaboration with Russian turbine manufacturer Power Machines relying on still experimental equipment, or construct a conventional CHP plant using steam turbines. However, these options are less favorable.[13]
Environmental concerns
On May 29, 2020 as a result of the foundation support subsidence, the bottom of reservoir 5 detached, causing release of all the stored diesel fuel. The leak of 21 000 tons of petroleum products led to the pollution of water bodies in the Norilsk-Pyasino lake-river system, estimated at over 200 billion rubles in damage. The incident is considered by scientists as the largest environmental disaster in the Russian Arctic.[14]
