Background

The power station will become a unique power station for Russia. It will operate on by-product gas generated during metallurgical production. This project will reduce CO2 emissions by an additional 650,000 tons per year and increase the plant's self-sufficiency in electricity to 96%.[11] In March 2024, the construction was still in progress.[12] According to the Russian Ministry of Energy 2024-2029 energy program, released in November 2023, the power station is planned to be commissioned in 2024.[13] As of December 2024, the construction is ongoing and is expected to be completed in 2025.[14] The Draft Scheme and Program for the Development of Electric Power System of Russia for 2025–2030, released by the Russian Ministry of Energy in October 2024, also mentions 2025 as the start year.
