This time, the production departments of the Tavricheskaya (Simferpolsky) Thermal Power Plant, located near Simferopol, were damaged..

November 3, 2018, on the roof of the main building of the Tavricheskaya TPP, an emergency area was revealed with signs of damage to the roof due to thermal effects. Accidents at the facility recorded by space photography.

According to the information available at the thermal power plants, where the gas turbines "SIEMENS" are installed, which were brought to the territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea bypassing international sanctions, commissioning work was carried out, as a result of which an accident could occur.

As it is known, Tavricheskaya TPP should work on natural gas.. The site for construction was chosen near the Simferopol distribution station, intended for the supply of electricity in the direction of the southern coast of Crimea and Sevastopol.

2 land plots with a total area of ??61.6 hectares were allocated for the construction of a thermal power plant. The total capacity of 2 units of Tavricheskaya TPP will be 470 ВМТ. The customer for the construction of the TPP is the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation. The first object was planned to be commissioned in 2017, the second - in 2018. On October 1, 2018, the first unit with a capacity of 235 MW was planned to be put into operation to set up a technological cycle.
