Background

In January 2022, the power station's two units were mothballed for a period of at least one year.[12] Until January 2022, the power plant had to comply with a "forced generation regime", which was enforced by the order of the government of the Russian Federation. This order was created to enforce modernization of existing energy facilities or decommissioning of those facilities where modernization is not feasible. Once the order has expired, the power station's management has announced closure due to unprofitability for a period of at least one year.[12] Currently power plants in Crimea are connected to the energy grid of Russia.[13] In August 2021, there were reports that the plant was in dire need of modernization.[14]

As of December 2023, the power station is operating.[15]
