Overview
Huadyan-Teninskaya TPP is a 450 MW gas-fired power plant in Russia, operated by PJSC TGC-2. It supplies electricity to the grid under Russian Federation regulations.
Huadyan-Teninskaya TPP is a gas-fired power generation facility located in Russia, with coordinates 57.72°N, 39.69°E. The plant has a capacity of 450 megawatts (MW), placing it in the medium-to-large scale for gas power plants in the region. It is owned and operated by PJSC "TGC-2", a major Russian energy company, and is currently in operational status. The plant utilizes natural gas as its primary fuel, a cleaner-burning fossil fuel compared to coal, resulting in lower emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter. However, it still produces carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). The facility operates under the Russian Federation's environmental regulations, which include emission limits for power plants and requirements for monitoring and reporting. The technology is likely combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) or steam turbine, typical for modern gas plants of this capacity. Huadyan-Teninskaya TPP plays a significant role in the local energy grid, providing reliable baseload or peaking power depending on demand. Its location in the Yaroslavl region supports industrial and residential electricity needs. The plant's environmental impact is managed through compliance with national standards, and its gas-fired nature contributes to lower carbon intensity compared to coal-fired alternatives in the Russian energy mix.
Environmental context
The plant's gas-fired operation results in lower CO2 emissions per MWh compared to coal, but still contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. Proximity to populated areas may raise local air quality concerns, particularly for NOx. The facility's age and technology (likely CCGT) influence its efficiency and emission profile. Russian regulations set emission limits for power plants, and the plant must comply with these standards to operate.
