In 1918, during the Civil War, Russia has ceased to act in the Baku oil and Donetsk coal.Extinguished lights in the houses and in the streets, stopped the majority of enterprises have ceased to operate low-power station.The country faces ruin.The young government of Soviet Russia sought ways to resolve the energy crisis.Reminded of local fuel - peat and lignite suburbs.After all, in 1914 in Moscow he was already working on peat world's first hydroelectric power station "Power Transmission" with capacity of 15 MW.
autumn of 1918 found a place on the bank of the river.Oka River near the village of Turnovo.It was built Kashira GRES.Passing the railway used to shuttle fuel.In March 1919, the project was ready, and in April started construction.Defence Council announced the construction site the most important task for the state.It was the necessary resources, but they are still not enough.In June, at a construction site employing more than 500 people, and in a year - more than 2 000. By 1920, the construction of the completed.But because of all sorts of inconsistencies and lack of organization, but in October 1921, allowed the first generator on trial.In November - a test run of the second generator.The first electricity Kashira GRES gave the network April 30, 1922 Official launch and grand opening was June 4, 1922 In the 20s - 30s, the technology to use local fuels - lignite, peat, etc., And to increase capacityStation to 205 MW (electrification project - 60 MW).Testing and cogeneration: electricity and heat for industrial and residential sectors.
During the Great Patriotic War Kashira GRES, as long as possible, only provide the city of Tula gunsmiths (almost surrounded by the Germans) electricity.One of the wires transmission line Kashira - Tula used to channel reliable and secure communication of Tula to Moscow by phone HF (high-frequency).In the same week was the evacuation of the main equipment to the east.To revive the station began in January 1942. In February 1943, we received a pre-war capacity.After the war, built power units with supercritical steam parameters and the power was adjusted to 2 MW.
In 2012, the Kashira GRES-toiler celebrated its 90th anniversary.All these years, almost a century, it provided people with light and warmth, and industry - energy.
Iriklinskaya GRES is located on the bank of the river.Urals, in the South Urals.For the construction of this plant was initially built Iriklinskaya HPP (Hydroelectric) 30 MW to form a reservoir for hydroelectric power station.Work began in 1963 and lasted until 1985.Power in its composition has 8 units of 300 MW.In 1975, commissioned the first place - four units of 300 MW each and two previously built the first unit of 300 MW, too.Power of the first phase - 1800 MW.The second phase - 2 units of 300 MW was built in 1978 - 1979 and in 1985 the second stage put into operation together with the village of energy.Total power with Iriklinskaya HPP - 2430 MW, thermal power - 121 Gcal / h.The main type of fuel - natural gas Bukhara.Power Plant provides electricity Magnitogorsk complex of factories, enterprises of the Orenburg and Chelyabinsk regions, Bashkortostan and Kazakhstan.
where great attention is paid to reducing the impact on the environment.In 2012, it built a bypass channel and a 20% reduction in the consumption of water from the reservoir.Also, the device is built repellent fish and not giving it to fall into the pump station.
Perm GRES is located on the banks of the Kama Reservoir, 70 km north of the city of Perm.It incorporates three steam power unit of 800 MW with a total capacity of 2400 MW and a thermal capacity of 620 Gcal / h.Power Plant provides electricity to the Perm region, the Urals region, and others. The construction of the power plant began in 1976, on the right bank of the huge man-made sea - Kama Reservoir.After 10 years, it launched the first unit.Project fuels - coal, real fuel - gas from Urengoy and Yamburg.
In the near term launch of a new power unit with steam and gas cycle having an efficiency of over 56-58%, while the efficiency of the steam-powered units do not exceed 43 - 45%.This block is scheduled to enter into operation in 2015 and increase the production of electricity from the same amount of fuel consumption by 20 - 25%.
