The project is being implemented under the national program for the development of thermal power in the Far East.

The gas turbine was shipped by rail from the Leningrad Metal Works in St. Petersburg to Khabarovsk, covering a transport route of nearly 11,000 kilometers. Previously, the first gas turbine for Khabarovsk CHPP-4 was manufactured and delivered to the customer. The power plant is equipped with two high-capacity gas turbines.

Khabarovsk CHPP-4 will replace CHPP-1, which has been in operation for 70 years. The new plant has a design capacity of 410 MW and 1,389 Gcal/h, utilizing combined cycle technology based on domestically produced steam turbines, with natural gas as fuel. Power Machines will also provide equipment installation guidance and commissioning support. The project will help alleviate electricity shortages in the Far Eastern Federal District and promote regional economic development.

Power Machines is advancing the serial production of gas turbines with support from the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia. The company's total investment in the project is 25 billion rubles, including 6.9 billion rubles in government subsidies for research and development. Currently, the company produces eight gas turbines annually, with plans to expand to ten units starting in 2029. The company is also working to increase turbine power and efficiency.
