In the CIS, built and operated two hydroelectric power station bearing the name Berezovsky.One - in Belarus, the second - in Siberia.
Berezovskaya GRES (Krasnoyarsk region) - one of the first large-scale thermal power plants running on coal Kansk-Achinsk basin, located in the Krasnoyarsk region of the Russian Federation.The power station is located at a distance of 14 km from the coal mine, where production is carried out openly.This method of production ensures low cost of coal.Given that the cost of electricity produced at the power station, the price of fuel - it is half the price of electricity, the price of 1 kW / h turns low.
Berezovskaya GRES was designed in the late 70s.Construction began in 1980. In 1987 he earned the first unit of 800 MW in 1990 - the second, also of 800 MW.All the power stations on the original draft was to be 6,400 MW.
KATEK The project was supposed to build a group of eight most powerful IES 6 400 MW each on the basis of lignite coal basin.Electricity produced by EHV transmission lines were receiving cities in Siberia, the Urals and central European part of the USSR.Note that the Soviet projects were only partly built, but that the time to build, surprises and now.Modern Berezovskaya GRES, capacity of 1 600MW, with chimney, having a height of 370 m (in the Guinness Book of Records).The construction of the third unit of 800 MW, which will significantly increase the capacity of the plant.Further development of the weaknesses constrain the power line.To improve the efficiency Berezovskaya GRES translated into the category of CHP district heating network expansion.
Berezovskaya GRES (Belarus) - the largest in the country KES.It is located near Brest, on the shore of the lake.White, which is used as a source of water and as a cooling pond for the waste water.Berezovskaya GRES power of 900 MW.The station has six power units of 150 MW each.Construction started in 1958, the last unit started to give electricity in 1967. The fuel used coal Donbass and seasonal surpluses of natural gas.Initially the project was planned to use as a fuel gas and black oil mixture.To remove 99% of the purified flue gas built two pipes 100 and 180 m.
Belovskaya GRES is located in the center of the Kuznetsk coal basin in the Kemerovo region of the Russian Federation.Kuzbass Center was chosen because the area needs more power, and within its territory, nearby, there was no power.
construction of this facility lasted for more than 8 years.The first unit was launched in 1964. A total of 6 power stations, each of 200 MW.Additional heating capacity of 125 Gcal / h.
In 2010 Belovskaya TPP began the process of modernization.It signed a contract with OAO "Power Machines" for the manufacture and installation of two new turbines of 225 MW.These turbines will replace spent his time units on the 4th and 6th power units.The first change at the 4th block is planned in late 2013, the second - in the second block - at the end of 2014. As a result of this upgrade, the station will increase its reliability and increase the production of electricity.
