Background
The four-unit, 180-MW coal-fired Arkhangelsk Pulp & Paper Mill power station is owned by Pulp Mill Holding GmbH (Austria).[12] The plant provides power and heat to the Arkhangelsk Paper Mill[13] and provides heat and power to the residents of Novodvinsk.[14][15]
In March 2022, it was reported that Austria's Pulp Mill Holding continues operations in Russia, but seeks alternatives to imported chemicals.[16] In March 2023, it was reported that the 100% stake in the Russian company was transferred from Pulp Mill Holding GmbH to the Austrian private fund Zinner Privatstiftung.[17][18]
There have been multiple proposals to convert this station to run fully on gas, including a recent proposal to complete this by 2028.[19]
Capacity
According to some sources, there are four turbines comprising of two units of 30 MW[15][20][21] and two 60 MW units[15][22], with capacity totalling 180MW. Another source listed five units: one 12 MW, two 25 MW, and two 60MW, totalling 182 MW.[23] The System Operator's document released in early 2023 clarified the situation, confirming 5 units ranging from 12 MW to 60 MW, totalling 182 MW.[24] Unit 7 was recertified in mid-2022 with a lower capacity at 56 MW, down from 60MW.[24]
There are an estimated 9 boilers, according to one source.[23] However, the company website also mentions boilers 10 and 11 which were commissioned in 1966 and 1967 respectively, and boilers 12 and 13 which were commissioned in 1971 and boiler 14 commissioned in 1974.[22]
Modernization
Some of the original boilers and turbines have been replaced with more modern versions. New boiler #9 was under construction in 2017, with expected commissioning in summer of 2019. The boiler was expected to be linked to turbines #7 and #9.[25] It was commissioned in January 2020.[22][26][27] This boiler unit has replaced the old boiler #9 installed in 1965.[25] In 2013, a new turbine was installed at unit 5 with capacity of 30 MW, replacing the original turbine installed in the 1960s.[21] However the System Operator's planning documents still listed 25MW for unit 5.[24]
Another new turbine was proposed to be installed by 2020.[15][28] In April 2022, a new 60 MW steam turbine at Unit 7 was installed.[29][15][30] It appeared that later this unit was re-certified to 56MW, according to the document by the System Operator published in 2023.[24] In 2022, the company also signed an agreement with Rotec to supply the 30 MW turbine at Unit 6, this is planned to be achieved by the end of 2023.[31]
Proposed Conversion to Gas
In 2018, a new 120 MW gas-powered unit was planned to be installed. In 2021, the project was still in the stage of a planned feasibility study.[32] In August 2019, another source was stating that the four operating coal-fired units will be converted to gas and three new gas boilers will be installed. This will result in converting the entire power station to operate on gas[15] by 2025.[30]
Later it appeared that the plans to convert to gas are being postponed. Instead, a new 60 MW turbine unit was proposed in 2018 to replace one of the old turbines (Unit 7)[33], and a second turbine was planned to be replaced by 2021. It is understood that both replacements are still are coal-fired. According to the General Director of the plant, "these two replacements are the first step towards restructuring the power plant's energy generating system, including the subsequent conversion of the four coal-fired boilers to gas and installation of three additional gas-powered boilers."[30]
In June 2022, the company reported their plan to convert the entire station to gas by 2028; this would include connecting the station to the gas pipeline, switching the station from coal to gas, and decommissioning physically obsolete boiler equipment.[19][34]
As of November 2023, the conversion to gas was in progress, and the generating equipment of the power station was being replaced or upgraded.[35][36][37] The conversion to gas by 2028 was mentioned again in the media in August 2024 without any further updates.[38]
