The First city power plant in Nizhyn is a key infrastructure asset in Ukraine's power generation grid, located on the continent of Europe. Designated as a fossil fuel electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 0 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing gas energy resources to generate bulk electricity. Operational management and ownership of the facility are handled by the Nizhyn City Council, which oversees daily maintenance and grid dispatch integration. The facility was officially connected to the commercial grid in 1960, since which it has maintained regular output, playing a structured role in domestic power supply security. In terms of domestic production capacity within Ukraine, First city power plant in Nizhyn occupies the #18 position among all operational gas power plants. Its 0 MW capacity represents a 0.00% share of Ukraine's total installed gas generating capacity, which currently stands at 10,285 MW. The largest operational gas installation in Ukraine is the Zaporizhzhia TPP with an output of 3,650 MW, making the First city power plant in Nizhyn approximately 1.0 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0000% of Ukraine's aggregate generation capacity of 128,524 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of gas power plants (modeled at 40% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 0 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Ukraine consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 0 homes. By utilizing traditional thermal power processes, the station delivers reliable dispatchable energy to the grid, supporting grid resilience during periods of low renewable resource availability and satisfying industrial base-load demands. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates 51.0506° latitude and 31.8906° longitude. A review of spatial data shows no other significant power generating installations within 50 kilometers, demonstrating the plant's solitary role in serving localized regional demand centres. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Ukraine.
