Power engineers of the Severnaya CHPP completed the refurbishment of power unit No. 4. A considerable amount of work was done — the main steam pipeline was replaced, control circuits were updated, and the system of automatic ignition of gas torches was installed.

"During the implementation of this investment project, we not only repaired and replaced the power unit's equipment but also significantly improved the personnel's workstations: the obsolete narrow-focused devices and recorders were replaced by modern digital technology. These changes will positively influence the reliability of the overall facility's operation," explained Oleg Shkurov, Director of Severnaya CHPP of TGC-1.

The program of complex tests of equipment, protection and automation devices confirmed the readiness of the power unit to carry electrical and thermal loads in full.
