Krasnogorsk cogeneration station is a 121 MW coal-fired power plant located in Russia, operated by the Sverdlovsk Branch of PJSC "T Plus" since its commissioning in 1939. The facility also utilizes gas as a secondary fuel, contributing to the region's energy production from coal. Krasnogorsk ranks as the 84th largest coal power plant in Russia. With a capacity of 121 MW, it represents 0.21% of Russia's total coal capacity of 56,758 MW. Russia has 112 coal plants with a combined capacity exceeding 56,000 MW. Compared to the largest coal plant in the country, Reftinskaya GRES at 3,800 MW, Krasnogorsk is approximately 3.2% the size. Coal is a significant energy source in Russia, contributing to a large portion of the country's electricity generation. The reliance on coal is evident, as it forms part of the diverse energy mix in the Ural region, where Krasnogorsk is located. The plant is situated approximately 30 km from Yekaterinburg.
