Background
The Sakhalin GRES-1 power station was owned by Sakhalinenergo, which is part of RusHydro.
The plant originally had six units, brought online between 1965 and 1972, with a total design capacity of 315 MW.[1]
By 2014 the plant's capacity decreased from 315MW to 84MW.[2] It appears that there was some de-rating of the old capacity too.
Running on aging equipment, the Sakhalin GRES-1 power station had been running below its nameplate capacity for years; it was planned to be shut down once the new Sakhalin GRES-2 power station is completed. After the new Sakhalin GRES-2 power station was commissioned in November 2019 the plant's remaining 2 units were fully retired on Dec. 1, 2019.[1]
