Fortum has commissioned its Nyagan-2 power plant unit in Russia. The unit's certified capacity is 424 MW. In accordance, Fortum will start to
receive capacity payments for Nyagan 2 as of 1 December 2013 in addition to revenues from electricity sales to the wholesale market. Nyagan 1 has been in commercial operation since 1 April 2013 and the construction of Nyagan 3 is planned to be finalised by the end of 2014.
The Nyagan greenfield project, comprising three CCGT units, is being constructed in the town of Nyagan in Western-Siberia. When completed, the
power production capacity of the state-of-the-art natural gas-fuelled new power plant will be approximately 1,250 MW. It is the first new-build power plant of this scale in two decades in Russia. The Nyagan power plant is part of Fortum's almost 2,400-MW investment programme in Russia. The programme is covered by Capacity Supply Agreements (CSA) and comprises eight CCGT units, five of which have now been commissioned.
