Nyagan GRES - a major project of the 21st century

For some time the small town of Nyagan, located in the Tyumen region, has become the place where to build the most advanced enterprise in the power generation industry in Russia - Nyagan GRES.Work on the construction of the co-ordinates of its "Fortum", the structure that already includes four thermal power plant in the Tyumen region, and five - in the Chelyabinsk region.

Nyagan GRES in his work is focused on the operation of combined cycle, there are F-class turbines that operate efficiently and with the least pollution to the environment.Overall total capacity of three units built over 1.2 thousand. MW, of which the first unit is already put into operation in 2013 (capacity of about 421 MW), and the second and third will be launched in 2013-2014.

Nyagan GRES is one of the important projects of the country and the Urals Federal District.The station is considered important for the energy sector of Ugra, Pre-Polar and Polar Urals, as well as such companies as Rosneft, Itera, Gazprom, Lukoil and others. It is expected that the construction and operation of such a large company will create about 3,000 jobs, will involve local contractorsand specialists of the respective qualification.Such an approach will be very useful for Nyagan, where about 51 thousand. Residents.

Currently Nyagan GRES "gave birth" to two new electricity transmission lines in the direction Ilkovo and located in a gas processing plant.Both were created with the participation of JSC "FGC UES".Hydroelectric this level of construction in our country for the first time in 20 years.

Another electricity generator - Nizhnetouriskaya Power Plant, has been operating for over 60 years.Built 40-50 years.20th century, it is today "issues" about 300mW, which allows for electricity is not one city.The highly respected citizens and affectionately called "Aurora" for the number and order of the tubes.At the beginning of its existence, this company has been a proving ground for the education of personnel for the industry, and has become a key element to integrate the Urals and European power transmission.This power plant is obliged birth town Tura, who got his urban status in 1949 by converting from the camp.

much younger Nizhneturinskaya GRES another sample of the Soviet-Russian power generation - Neryungri SRPS.Its construction began in 1980, and three years later launched the first unit.Total power station (3 blocks) is 570 MW, and it is the only power generator in Yakutia.The low population density in the region contributes to the fact that the capacity of the enterprise is still missing (the end of 10-ies. 21 th century were involved in only about 45% of the resource station).Moreover, a few years ago, agreements were signed with China, according to which the TPP must log in organizations that provide electricity to its eastern neighbor.Currently, hydroelectric power is ready for a full load, and the sale of excess energy in the domestic and international markets.

Currently, Russia has about five hundred different types of power plants (HPP, TPP, nuclear), of which 10 are atomic.In view of the fact that many enterprises were built decades ago, before the government agencies and the business rather than the issue of the need to modernize the industry, as a necessary condition for the development of the industry and to maintain an optimal level of living of the population.
