Background
The six-unit, 1,260-MW coal-fired Belovskaya power station is owned by TGC-12 (Kuzbassenergo), which in turn is owned by SUEK. The plant’s six units were brought online between 1964 and 1968.[2][3][4]
The power station provides electricity and heat to residential customers[5], as well as electricity to industrial enterprises in the region. Electricity is supplied through high-voltage lines to Kemerovo, Novokuznetsk, Belovo and other cities, as well as to neighbouring regions. The power plant supplies about 1/3 of al power produced in the Kemerovo region[6] and covers the bulk of electricity consumption by industrial enterprises of the region.[7]
In 2020, a project was underway to expand the residential heat and hot water network and connect more customers, particularly from Belovo city, which relies on local boilers for heat and hot water.[5][8] In 2022 the power plant completed the process of transferring the heat load from 6 old boiler houses in Belovo to the power plant.[9]
Electricity generation by the plant was 5,002 million kWh in 2021, 4,778 million kWh in 2020.[10] In 2022 the plant generated 5,937 million kWh.[11]
Modernization
In 2021 Belovskaya GRES was selected for the nation-wide COMMod program for modernizing energy generation equipment, where selected plants will receive capacity payments for 15 years.[12][13][14] The government decree from February 2022 cited a planned capacity increase at Unit 2 by 2026, from 200MW to 215MW.[15][16] The plan has later been amended to 2027.[17]
Accidents
In July 2019 a woman and her young daughter drowned after being pulled into an intake valve in a reservoir that feeds water to the plant.[18]
The region frequently experiences earthquakes which have been linked to the coal mining practices.[19]
A media source from September 2023 reported an explosion of the transformer of the power plant, this did not seem to affect electricity supply.[6][20]
