HRSG installation is launched at Kurgan HPP-2

Installation of the HRSG, one of the most important components of the Kurgan HPP-2, has been started.

Heat recovery steam generators are designed to produce steam by means of water heating by the GT exhaust gas heat. Generated steam is supplied to the steam turbine to produce electric power and is used for system water heating. SES Tlmace double-pressure horizontal HRSGs are installed at the Kurgan HPP-2. A 200 ton lifting capacity ALE special gantry crane was mounted for their installation in the plant boiler compartment.

Now, the gas and steam turbines with the load gears and generators are put on the foundations, installation in progress. Water heating boilers installation is finishing, hydraulic testing is prepared, fan cooling tower sections are mounted, gas treatment point is built and piping stack is assembled. GT boosting compressors, power transformers and open switchgear are prepared for erection.

The Kurgan HPP-2 will comprise 2 power units, 111 MW each. Each power unit consists of the General Electric 76 MW PG 6111FA gas turbine, Siemens 35 MW SST-400 steam cogeneration turbine and HRSG. The HPP installed electric output is 222 MW, the heat power being 250 Gcal/h. The Kurgan HPP-2 construction will allow improving the Kurgan region power supply and provide conditions for social and economic development of the city and region.
