Tom-Usinskaya power station (Томь-Усинская ГРЭС) is a 1,345 megawatt (MW) coal-fired power plant in Kemerovo province, Russia.
Location
The undated satellite photo below shows the plant, which is near Bezrukovo, in Novokuznetsk city, Kemerovo province.
Background on Plant
The nine-unit, 1,345-MW coal-fired Tom-Usinskaya GRES power station is owned by Kuzbassenergo (TGC-12), which in turn is owned by SUEK.[1][2]
The plant’s nine units were brought online between 1958 and 1965.[3][4][5] In 2008 a plan to build an additional 660-MW unit was announced as part of a plan to increase the plant's capacity.[6] In 2014 a rebuilt Unit 4 with 124 MW capacity was commissioned and a rebuilt Unit 5 with 121 MW capacity was commissioned.[5] As of December 2019 the plan to build an additional 660-MW unit has not progressed and the unit appears to be cancelled.
In 2021, the power plant produced 5,124 million kWh of electricity, in 2020 it was 6,598 million kWh.[7]
Modernization project
In June 2021, SUEK announced that it would invest RUR 19 billion toward modernization efforts at the Tom-Usinskaya power station.[8] The power plant was selected for the federal COMMod program for modernizing energy generation equipment, where selected plants will receive capacity payments for 15 years.[9][10] Modernization work began at Tom-Usinskaya in December 2021 and is expected to last until 2026.[11] In December 2021, it was reported that the modernization would include units 6, 7 and 9, as well as other equipment at the station such as the cooling towers.[12] The new cooling towers would support the modernized units 6, 7 and 9; the program additionally includes modernization of units 8 and 3 of the station.[13] In February 2022, unit 7 was being replaced with a new turbine. The boiler unit #12, linked to the turbine unit #7, was also under reconstruction at this time. The entire modernization project is expected to continue until 2026 with the estimated budget of RUB 30.9 billion[14], so it appears that the cost estimate has gone up significantly.
In June 2022, the turbine for unit 7 was completely replaced with a new turbine unit with capacity of 200 MW. The boiler #12 was reported to be fully refurbished (although it was not replaced, only modernized).[15]
