Background on Coal-Fired Units

The three coal-fired generating units at Vladivostok-2 power station have a capacity of 300 MW. The plant is owned by RusHydro. The plant’s three coal-fired units were brought online between 1970 and 1971.[1][2]

The plant's first three generating units were converted to run on natural gas in 2010-13. As of late 2014, the company planned to converted the remaining units to gas by 2017; as of mid-2018, however, the remaining units had apparently not been converted.[3][4]
