Mobile GTPPs at 110 kV Novosyrovo Substation put into pilot operation

Moscow, 21 September 2007 Two mobile gas turbine power plants with a combined capacity of 45 MW have been put into pilot operation at the 110 kV Novosyrovo Substation. The acceptance certificate has been signed by the Central Acceptance Commission comprising representatives of the Russian Federal Service for Environmental and Atomic Supervision, RAO "UES of Russia", OAO "Mobile GTPPs", and OAO "VO Technopromexport".

The Mobile GTPPs are being deployed in the Moscow Region as part of the RAO UES Investment Programme and the Agreement between RAO "UES of Russia" and the Moscow Region Government dated 20 November 2006.

Over the past few years, the Moscow Energy System has seen a rapid growth of power consumption of 6% per year. The increase in power use is observed not only in winter, during the period of extremely low temperatures, but also during the summer months. The peak loads in the energy system emerge during the morning and evenings hours. The Mobile GTPPs are designed to help improve the reliability of power supply to customers in Moscow and the surrounding Moscow Region and make the region's energy system operation more stable. The Mobile GTPPs are expected to operate not more than 4 hours a day, during the peak load hours, i.e. ca. 150 hours a year.

The first two 45 MW Mobile GTPPs manufactured by Pratt & Whitney were deployed near the 110 kV Daryino substation. The GTPPs were brought on line on 22 February 2007 and successfully operate in the Moscow energy system.

It is planned that 10 Mobile GTPPs having a combined capacity of 225 MW will be deployed in Moscow and the Moscow Region. Similar power plants are to be launched at the 110 kV Pushkino Substation (on 15 October 2007) and on the 110 kV Rublevo Substation (on 15 November 2007).

Mobile GTPPs operate in over 40 countries, including Canada, United States, Germany, United Kingdom, Norway, Israel. Such plants were used during the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens and 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. According to the Rotekhnadzor certificate, the Mobile GTPPs are in full compliance with the Russian environmental laws and regulations.
