It should be recalled that on December 31, 2021, this TPP launched its first unit with a capacity of 270 MW.
The thermal power plant will generate 2.2 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, covering 80% of the region’s consumption.
Thanks to the high efficiency of the devices, 260 million cubic meters of natural gas per year will be saved. The saved natural gas will generate an additional 900 million kilowatt-hours of electricity.
