Berezovskaya GRES

Sergey Avgustovich Raikhel
Director of Berezovskaya GRES Branch, Unipro PJSC

“The year 2018 for the team of Berezovskaya GRES was not easy. At the construction site of Power Unit No. 3, the most difficult dismantling of the damaged part of the boiler was completed. The repair process entered the final phase of installation and commissioning of equipment.

On the existing equipment, an extended overhaul of Power Unit No. 2 was carried out. Significant investment projects were implemented. We completed a large programme for the repair of amenity facilities at the power plant and began work on the improvement of the near-plant area, to which our employees joined on a volunteer basis.

For the first time this year at Berezovskaya GRES we held a family festival, “Unipro Sky”, where children and relatives of our employees were invited. The holiday was a success and will now become our good tradition.”

Berezovskaya GRES is the Most Powerful Heat Power Plant of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

The power plant is operated as part of the unified energy system of Siberia. In May 2018, Berezovskaya GRES generated 200 bln kWh of electric power since it was launched.

Starting from January of the reporting year, Power Unit No. 2 provides SO UES JSC with the services aimed at ensuring overall reliability of the national energy system in the part of RPFC. To ensure compliance with the requirements of the System Operator, Berezovskaya GRES updated the automatic control system of turbine unit No. 2 and the hard and soft suite of the turbine control system, as well as readjusted the automation system.

It is important that Power Unit No. 1 of Berezovskaya GRES Branch gained the right to render these services in December 2015 and it was the first Russian pulverised coal power unit to take part in RPFC.

The fire happened in the boiler house of Power Unit No. 3 in February 2016 and as a result its operation was terminated in order to carry out an overhaul. Information on the progress of this project is provided in the Repair Activity section.
