TES "International"236 MW Natural Gas

Gas

TES 'International', located in Russia, ranks as the 254th largest power generation facility in a vast landscape of 652 plants, with a capacity of 236 MW. Although its contribution of 0.07% to Russia's total capacity of 315,886 MW may seem modest, its operation is crucial in a country where natural gas dominates the energy sector. Commissioned in 2006 and operated by OOO 'Cityenergo', this gas-fired facility plays a role within a dense network of power plants in the Moscow region. Nearby, plants like CHP-23 with an impressive capacity of 5,690 MW and CHP-21 at 1,800 MW dwarf TES 'International'. This proximity to larger facilities highlights the competitive nature of power generation in the area, where TES 'International' nonetheless contributes to the grid’s overall stability. The Russian energy profile is heavily reliant on gas, and as the country seeks to modernize its energy infrastructure, facilities like TES 'International' can play a role in easing transitions towards more sustainable practices. Amidst the challenges of energy demand and environmental concerns, the facility's operational efficiency and adaptability will be essential in shaping the future of energy production in Russia.
