Kuznetsk Thermal Power Station - Coal Power Plant in Russia

Kuznetsk Thermal Power Station is a coal-fired power generation facility located in Russia, with a capacity of 100 MW. The plant is operational and serves the local energy demand, utilizing coal as its primary fuel source. As a coal power plant, Kuznetsk Thermal Power Station operates under Russia's national environmental regulations, which set emission limits for pollutants such as SOx, NOx, and particulate matter. The plant's capacity of 100 MW places it in the small-to-medium scale range for coal-fired generation in the region. The facility plays a role in the regional power grid, providing baseload electricity to nearby communities and industries. Its operation contributes to the energy mix of Russia, where coal remains a significant source of power generation.

The plant's coal combustion produces CO2, SOx, NOx, and particulate emissions, which can impact local air quality. Its location in Russia's Kemerovo Oblast, a region with significant coal mining and industrial activity, means the plant operates in an area with existing environmental pressures. The 100 MW capacity suggests a moderate environmental footprint relative to larger coal plants.
