TGC-1’s Board of Directors considered a range of corporate matters and approved revision of the Pervomayskaya and Central CHPPs renovation projects.

At Pervomayskaya CHPP, a unified auxiliary building, comprising two steam and three water boilers will be constructed. It is a second stage of the project for replacing the out-of-date facilities of the plant. Parallel operation of new PGU-180 units at Pervomayskaya CHPP and the unified auxiliary building will help to transfer the heat generation for CHPP’s consumers to the new equipment and close down the out-of-date facilities, which were commissioned in 1950s.

For the renovation of the Central CHPP, it was resolved to install two gas turbine units, 50MW each at the power station №1 (PS-1 of Central CHPP).

Furthermore, the Board of Directors approved amendments to the TGC-1’s Procurement Provision. In particular, it was decided to expand the requirements for the tender participants with regard to the owners’ information.
