ОАО «ТГК-1» готово обеспечить рост энергопотребления
On March 20, 2015, at a conference entitled The Development Prospects of Housing and Utility Infrastructure, Edward Lisitsky, Deputy General Director for Development of JSC TGC-1, told about the company’s development prospects. The conference was a part of the 11th International Exhibition entitled The Housing and Utility System of Russia, and one of its subjects was the new St. Petersburg heat supply plan.
“The approved heat supply plan of St. Petersburg was based on the priority of combined heat and electricity generation at the CHPPs of JSC TGC-1. Currently, we produce 75% of heat this way,” said Lisitsky. “In addition, the company’s CHPPs have an effective strategic electric capacity reserve until 2020 or even more. We are ready for the energy consumption growth, which is expected in the next three to five years due to the implementation of import substitution programs in the industry and agriculture.”
The 1,052 MW electric capacity reserve at the CHPPs of JSC TGC-1 will cover a 13% electricity consumption raise in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Oblast and a 1.6-time raise in the industry. In addition, the heat supply plan of St. Petersburg allows switching the head load of individual hot water boiler facilities to the Pravoberezhnaya, Yuzhnaya, and Vyborgskaya CHPPs.
