The equipment weighing more than 100 tons arrived by rail from Novosibirsk at the Bestyakh Station in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), then it was loaded onto a low bed truck for subsequent ferry delivery to the right bank of the Lena River, where the construction site is located.
Today, 1,766 people and 50 pieces of equipment are involved in the construction of the power plant. They work two shifts doing all kinds of jobs from interior finishing to the installation of steel structures, process pipelines and equipment.
The builders of Natsproektstroy have already installed a capacitor, horizontal district heaters, and low and high pressure heaters in the design position in the main building of Tuymaada TPP. The installation of the second boiler, low and high pressure pipelines and auxiliary equipment is underway. Steam Boiler 1 is ready for commissioning, which is scheduled for the summer period.
"The plant has been designed by the engineers of Teploelectroproekt Institute (part of TEK Mosenergo). The plant is designed and built specific to its conditions, namely its location in the permafrost zone," said Sergey Sorokin, CEO of TEK Mosenergo.
12,165 tons of steel structures have been installed, including production buildings and process piperacks. The steel frame has been assembled and the process equipment of the cooling tower with a height of 18 m, designed to cool the process equipment, is being installed. Shell, core and utilities of the water treatment building (WTB) and 110 kV GIS are completed, process equipment is being installed, cable lines are being laid, and personnel facilities are being finished. The specialists of ENNOVA (part of Natsproektstroy) are commissioning the start-up boiler.
The construction of Tuymaada TPP is one of RusHydro's six priority investment projects for the development of the thermal power industry in the Far East. The plan for their implementation has been approved by the Government of the Russian Federation. Stage 1 of the plant was commissioned in 2017, generating 164 MW. The new plant with an electric capacity of 160 MW and a thermal capacity of 200 gcal/h will create an additional capacity margin for consumers of the Central Energy District of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
