E.ON Russia Berezovkaya GRES (Krasnoyarsk region) has shut down Power Unit No. 1 for overhaul as per the schedule agreed upon with the Joint Dispatching Office of Siberian Energy Systems (JDO of Siberia). The overhaul is aimed at the prolongation of the fleet life of the power unit turbine. Major works are planned for the turbine unit, including complete disassembly of all five cylinders for the purpose of fault detection and replacement of turbine components.
The boiler unit will undergo the modernisation and replacement of blowing machines, as well as a series of technical measures aimed at the increase of boiler unit operational reliability. The lower packages of the convective secondary superheater will be renewed, and the heating surfaces of the convective pass of the boiler will be cleaned. This year the task is set to clean the convective pass from the bottom ash to the bare metal, i.e. to its original state.
Power Unit No. 1 will also undergo standard works associated with the inspection of main and auxiliary equipment as a part of preparation for the autumn-winter peak load.
