Background

Surgut GRES-2 provides electricity to the Western Siberia and Ural regions, serving as the largest electricity producer in Russia. It utilizes natural gas and associated petroleum gas as its primary fuel sources.[20]

Combined cycle units of the Surgutskaya GRES use 9FA turbines manufactured by General Electric. In June 2023, General Electric ceased its maintenance services for gas turbines in Russia following the imposition of expanded U.S. sanctions. The company also restricted access to the turbine monitoring system and may potentially halt the supply of original components, including turbine blades, in the future. The cessation of services, encompassing repairs, inspections, and part replacements, poses a significant challenge, particularly for the most potent F-class and H-class turbines.[21]

Modernization

In August 2024, the installed capacity of Unit CC1 increased by 15 MW and reached 412 MW as a result of the modernization.[22][23] Based on the "Scheme and Program for the Development of Electric Power System of Russia for 2025–2030", published by the Ministry of Energy in November 2024, units 4 and 6 will be upgraded in 2025, and units 2 and 3 in 2026 and 2027, accordingly. As a result of the upgrade, the installed capacity of each unit will increase by by 20 MW reaching 830 MW.[24]

The modernization of Unit 6 began in August 2024. As a result of the modernization, a new generator will be installed, along with the replacement of high- and medium-pressure cylinders and the upgrade of various electrical components. This includes the auxiliary generator, excitation system, generator voltage bus ducts, unit-wide relay protection, and emergency automation systems.[25] The unit upgrade will be completed in the first half of 2025.[26][27] According to the media, Unipro was planning to launch the upgraded unit in September 2024, but had to delay the commissioning until March 2025.[28]

In May 2025, Surgut GRES-2 will begin the modernization of Unit 4, with the upgraded equipment expected to be commissioned by the end of the year. Modernization of Unit 5 was approved in December 2024. The project aims to increase the capacity of Unit 5 from 810 MW to 830 MW through a comprehensive replacement of the steam turbine and generator. Upon completion of all upgrades, Surgut GRES-2 will receive updated steam-power and electrical equipment, increasing its installed capacity to 5,802 MW (+120 MW).[26][27][29]

Ownership

In April 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on the temporary management of assets of companies associated with foreign countries in the event of blocking of Russian assets in those countries. According to the decree, 83.73% of shares of PJSC Unipro, owned by German holding Uniper SE, have temporarily come under the management of Rosimushchestvo.[30]
