Overview
GTES Ilyichevskaya is a 16 MW gas power plant in Perm Krai, Russia, owned by LUKOIL-PERM. It supplies electricity to the local grid.
GTES "Ilyichevskaya" is a gas-fired power generation facility located in Perm Krai, Russia, with a capacity of 16 MW. The plant is owned and operated by OOO "LUKOIL-PERM" and is currently operational, contributing to the regional energy supply. As a gas power plant, GTES Ilyichevskaya utilizes natural gas as its primary fuel, which offers lower CO2 emissions compared to coal-fired plants. In Russia, gas-fired generation is common due to abundant domestic gas reserves, and such plants typically operate under federal environmental regulations, including emission limits for pollutants like NOx and SOx. The facility's 16 MW capacity places it in the small-scale category for power generation. It serves the local community and industrial users in the Perm region, supporting grid stability. The plant's operation aligns with Russia's energy strategy, which emphasizes gas as a key fuel source.
Environmental context
The plant's gas fuel type results in lower CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions compared to coal. Its location in Perm Krai, a region with significant industrial activity, means it contributes to local air quality management. The relatively small capacity (16 MW) limits its overall environmental footprint, but proximity to populated areas requires adherence to Russian emission standards.
