GT Luzhskaya HPP - 36 MW Gas Power Plant in Russia

GT Luzhskaya HPP is a gas-fired power plant located in Russia, with coordinates 58.5775° N, 31.2789° E. The plant has a capacity of 36 MW, placing it in the small-scale category for gas power generation. It is owned and operated by JSC "GTEnergo" and is currently operational. The plant operates on natural gas, a fuel with lower CO2 emissions compared to coal but still subject to greenhouse gas regulations. In Russia, gas-fired power plants fall under federal environmental oversight, including emission limits for NOx and SOx. The 36 MW capacity suggests a simple-cycle gas turbine configuration, typical for smaller peaking or district heating plants. As a gas-fired facility, GT Luzhskaya HPP provides flexible power generation that can support grid stability and local energy needs. Its location in the Novgorod region contributes to the area's industrial and residential electricity supply. The plant's operational status ensures continued service to the regional power system.

The plant's gas fuel type results in lower particulate and sulfur emissions compared to coal, but NOx emissions remain a concern. Its capacity of 36 MW indicates a relatively small environmental footprint per unit of electricity. Proximity to populated areas may require adherence to local air quality standards. The facility operates under Russian environmental regulations, which set emission limits for power plants.
