Background

On September 6, 2022, Novo-Sterlitamakskaya CHPP (part of BGK) turned 45 years old. Over the years of its operation, the combined heat and power plant has generated 72.4 billion KW of electricity and released 143.3 million Gcal of heat.[11]

In the early 1970s, the thermal and electrical capacity of the Sterlitamak CHPP became insufficient for the further development of a large industrial hub in the south of the Republic of Bashkortostan. Therefore, it was decided to build a second station. Construction work began in 1973, and on September 6, 1977, the first power unit of the Novo-Sterlitamakskaya CHPP was connected to the network with a gas-tight boiler with a capacity of 420 tons per hour and a turbine unit with a capacity of 60 MW. The energy needs of the region have been met for many years.[11]

Novo-Sterlitamakskaya CHPP has become the key to active and sustainable development of the second largest city in the republic. Today, it covers the heat loads of large industrial enterprises, provides heating for the city of Sterlitamak and supplies the generated electrical energy to the Unified Energy System of Russia. The installed electric capacity of the CHPP is 255 MW, thermal capacity is 1511.2 Gcal/h.[11]

Since July 1, 2014, the station has been the production site of the Sterlitamakskaya CHPP, a branch of the Bashkir Generating Company (BGC).[11]

In recent years, the CHPP has carried out a large amount of work on the technical re-equipment and modernization of equipment aimed at improving reliability and efficiency. Most of them were implemented as part of the investment program of the Bashkir Generating Company. The most significant projects were the technical re-equipment of the convective superheater of the 3rd-4th stages of the BKZ-420-140 NGM-4 (БКЗ-420-140 НГМ-4) boiler unit, the modernization of the equipment of the ZRU-110 kV (ЗРУ-110 кВ) indoor switchgear, and the implementation of a project for a complex of engineering and technical security equipment.[11]

The focus on upgrading and updating equipment will continue in the future. For example, a major project will be the comprehensive replacement of a steam turbine type PT-135/165-130 st. No. 3 in 2026, which will be implemented as part of the federal program for the modernization of the generating equipment of thermal power plants (KOMMod).[11][12] The project was included in the Russia's Ministry of Energy 2023-2028 energy program released in February 2023. According to the document, the project will be completed in 2027.[13] In October 2023, it was reported that the project documentation had been developed and approved.[14] As of May 2024, there have not been any updates about the project.
