en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Chernogorsk Thermal Power Plant (Черногорская ТЭЦ) has completed the trial operation of its first gas generator unit. This power plant is being built as a supporting facility for the Russian Platinum Group (Русская платина). The first unit, model ITE 4000G, was manufactured by CNPC Jichai, with installation carried out by the Intertechelektro (Интертехэлектро) Group. According to a press release from Intertechelektro, the unit underwent no-load operation and was tested under various modes during the trial, with no anomalies detected.

The power plant will be equipped with a total of 24 gas generator units, each with a capacity of 3.8 MW, resulting in a total installed capacity of 92 MW. The ITE 4000G unit is fitted with a Jichai 16V26/32T 16-cylinder V-type engine (with a displacement of 272 liters), an AC generator, and auxiliary equipment. This marks the first installation of such gas generator units in a power plant of this scale in Russia. The use of gas generator units enhances the plant's flexibility, enabling smooth load distribution and facilitating maintenance scheduling. Once operational, the plant will supply power to a beneficiation plant based on the Chernogorsk copper-nickel deposit (located 15 km southeast of Norilsk). The first phase of the beneficiation plant is designed to process 7 million tons of ore annually, with the final products being copper and nickel concentrates with high palladium and platinum content.
