The Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP was built only in 1976 - then two water-heating boilers manufactured by the Barnaul and Dorogobyzh boiler plants were launched, and the directorate of the CHPP under construction on December 31, 1976 was renamed the Blagoveshchensk Thermal Power Plant and included in the list of operating stations. At the same time, the construction of the first stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP was completely completed in December 1985 with the commissioning of boiler No. 3. With the completion of construction, the plant's installed capacity reached its design capacity and amounted to 280 MW of electrical and 689 Gcal / h of thermal power.
The contractual load in hot water and steam as of January 1, 2008 was 660 Gcal/hour. Issued specifications for connection of consumers at 95 Gcal/hour. The power shortage, taking into account the issued technical specifications, amounted to 60 Gcal/hour (excluding the thermal power of peak hot water boilers). Currently Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP has suspended the issuance of technical conditions for connection to CHP networks. There is also no reserve of thermal power at boiler houses that heat the housing stock.
Since the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP is the main supplier of thermal energy for heating and hot water supply of city facilities, a decision was made to build the second stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP. For this, it is planned to install a power unit No. 5 of the BKZ-420-140 type and a turbine unit No. 4 of the T-110/120-130 type. To commission boiler unit No. 5 and turbine unit No. 4, it is necessary to install the main and auxiliary equipment: fuel supply, chemical water treatment, outdoor switchgear-110 kV, hydraulic ash removal system, construction of cooling tower No. 4, technical water supply system. The implementation of this project will increase the supply of thermal energy from the BCHP to 767 Gcal/hour.
To ensure the increase in heat loads, create heat capacity for closing small uneconomical boiler houses operating without treatment plants, the Irkutsk branch of the Siberian Energy Scientific and Technical Center OJSC developed heat supply schemes for the city of Blagoveshchensk. Of the six proposed heat supply schemes, the most economical one was adopted: the development of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP to an installed electric capacity of 390 MW, thermal - 1180 Gcal / h.

Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP is the basic energy enterprise of the Amur Region. The history of construction of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP begins in the sixties.
Plan for the development of the industry of the city of Blagoveshchensk for 1971-1975. provided for the construction of several energy-intensive industrial enterprises, the expansion and reconstruction of existing ones, the intensive development Agriculture suburban state farms, construction residential buildings. After specifying the heat loads of industry and the housing and communal sector of the city, taking into account the shortage of electricity in the energy system of the Far East, the delay in commissioning the capacities of the Zeya hydroelectric power station, it was decided to increase the design capacity of the BCHP from 210 to 260 MW (Decision No. 100 of Glavseverovostok-energo dated August 23, 1968 year, approved by the Deputy Minister of Energy and Electrification of the USSR - Finogenov Ya.M.).
To reduce the cost of construction, the State Planning Committee of the USSR proposed to install water-heating boilers instead of a power boiler to cover the peak load. In accordance with this proposal, an amended task was approved, according to which the following equipment was approved for design: - one turbine of the PT-60-130 type; - two turbines of the T-110/120-130-2 type; - three boiler units of BKZ-420-100 type; - two hot water boilers of the KVGM-100 type.
The construction of the first stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP was completed in December 1985 with the commissioning of the BKZ-420-140/13 boiler st. No. 3 and turbine T-110-120/130 st. No. 3. The installed capacity reached the design capacity and amounted to 280 MW of electrical and 689 Gcal/hour of thermal power.
The development of the industry of the region, the construction of housing in Blagoveshchensk steadily led to an increase in the number of consumers of heat and electrical energy. Became topical issue expansion of the CHPP, construction of the second stage.
Since 2005, discussions about the need to complete the construction of the 2nd stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP have resumed, against the backdrop of a shortage of thermal capacity for heat supply to newly built facilities and adverse environmental trends created by a large number of small boiler houses operated in Blagoveshchensk.
The decision of the Government Russian Federation on the transfer to the management of JSC RusHydro of the State block of shares in JSC RAO Energy Systems of the East and an increase in the State's share in the assets of JSC RusHydro in the amount of 50 billion rubles, by buying out an additional share issue.
After implementation decisions taken In 2011 JSC "RAO of the East" entered into a contract for the design of the construction of the second stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP.
1966 The Ministry of Energy and Electrification of the USSR approved the heat supply scheme for the city of Blagoveshchensk.
1967 In accordance with master plan the city selected a site for the construction of a thermal power plant.
1974 The directorate of the CHPP under construction is being organized.

Blagoveshchensk CHPP was officially put into operation in 1976, after 2 hot water boilers were put into operation. However, the construction of the first stage of the heating plant was completed only in December 1985 with the commissioning of boiler unit No. 3. After that, the plant's installed capacity reached its design capacity and amounted to 280 MW of electrical and 689 Gcal / hour of thermal power.
The construction of the second stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP was started in 1988. Boiler No. 4 was put into commercial operation in December 1994, and in 1999 cooling tower No. 3 began to operate. Then construction and installation work was suspended, however, due to the construction of the Northern microdistrict in Blagoveshchensk, in 2009 It was decided to resume the construction of the second stage of the CHP.
The active phase of construction of the 2nd stage of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP began at the end of 2013 with the selection general contractor, it became Power Machines OJSC. CJSC "KOTEKS" is responsible for designing. This energy project is being implemented within the framework of a unified investment program JSC "RusHydro" for the development of energy in the Far East region.

A ABasic industry enterprise
For almost 40 years, the branch of the Amur Generation “Blagoveshchensk CHPP” has been the basic energy enterprise of the Amur region and the city of Blagoveshchensk, the main source of heat and electricity supply to the regional center.
Station
Provides 85% of the needs of industrial enterprises and housing and communal services of the city in heat
Generates a seventh of the region's total electricity.
On the company's balance sheet
More than 46 km of main heating mains
8 km of steam pipeline.
The station operates
Three turbine units
Four energy and two hot water boilers.
Installed capacity
For electricity - 280 MW
For heat energy - 817 Gcal / h.
Complex automation and automatic control of technological processes have a positive effect on increasing the efficiency of production.
Meanwhile, the years take their toll, the station has exhausted many of its resources. Some of the equipment is outdated and needs to be upgraded. The construction of the second phase of the BCHP is currently underway, which will increase the reliability of the heat and power plant and increase the supply of heat to consumers.
The rhythm of the energy heart depends on all participants in the process, whether they are employees of the turbine, boiler shops, chemical laboratories, the main control panel or auxiliary services.
We were convinced of this ourselves, having been here on an excursion. Our guide - Vitaly Andriyanov, Deputy Chief Engineer of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP.
Workshop with coal field
It all starts with fuel. Therefore, in the technological chain of heat and electricity production, one of the first is the fuel and transport shop. Coal is brought in railway from the Erkovets section of the Raychikhinsky deposit. Tanks with fuel oil also come to the station. Shop workers take wagons with coal. With the help of car dumpers, electric pushers, and in winter - a defrosting device, they carry out mechanized unloading of cars with fuel, supply it for burning to a boiler shop or to a huge coal field for storage. But first, the fuel is weighed, measured, cleaned and crushed.
The area of the coal field is 6.95 hectares, which is about the size of nine football fields. It is a visiting card not only of the fuel and transport department, but of the entire enterprise. The work of the shop staff is really difficult. Regardless of weather conditions, in cold weather, and in heat, day and night, in the open air, they unload fuel so that the station operates smoothly.
First energy - superheated steam
In the boiler shop, the first energy is obtained - superheated steam, which is fed through steam pipelines to the turbine shop and drives powerful turbines.
Our main task is to produce steam of the required parameters for steam turbines, tells us Ilya Kolotov, deputy head of the boiler shop.- We have six boilers: four power steam and two hot water. We use hot water only during certain periods of peak loads, when the thermal power of the main boiler units is not enough.
Boilers are huge structures as high as a nine-story building. There is an incredible number of pipelines around - steam, hot water, condensate, many different types of heaters, pumps, shut-off and control valves. Coal crushed to dust burns in the furnace of the boiler unit. The walls of the firebox are made of metal tubes through which water flows. From the flame and heat in the furnace, the temperature of which, by the way, reaches 1100 degrees, the water turns into steam. He, in turn, leaves the boiler and goes through the steam pipelines to the steam turbine. Flue gases from the boilers are discharged into two chimneys, which rise above Blagoveshchensk by 210 and 120 meters.
And all this hulk of equipment is controlled by automation and people. The operator of the thermal control panel of the boiler shop Konstantin Prozherin takes readings of the operation of the main and auxiliary equipment, leads the operation mode of the boilers. Because of modesty, he did not particularly communicate with us, although Konstantin Sergeevich has a solid work experience at the enterprise and he has something to tell. Competent, highly qualified. Deserves kind words and his brother Dmitry, who works in the workshop of thermal automation and measurements as a master.
"Symphony" of the turbine shop
Vitaly Andriyanov invites us to the noisy turbine shop of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP, where the rumble of numerous equipment forms a "technical symphony". This is another link in the technological chain of the enterprise. It is here that heat and electricity are generated, which are so necessary for consumers. Therefore, the main manufacturing products stations.
This is where the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy takes place. The boiler steam entering the turbine causes its multi-ton rotor to rotate at a speed of 3000 revolutions per minute and heats the water that enters the city for heating. It also heats the condensate from the exhaust steam. It returns to the cauldron in the form of water for the next round. At the same time, the turbine rotor rotates the generator rotor, which in turn generates electricity.
Looking at the station, Blagoveshchensk residents can see part of the equipment of the turbine shop, namely, three large structures - the cooling towers of the thermal power plant. These huge volcanic towers, from whose vents pour thick white steam, cool the water used to cool the equipment and the steam in the condenser.
Head of Turbine Shop Dmitry Romanov main task of his team defines as the fulfillment of load schedules for the generation of heat and electricity:
Our experts keep the equipment in a state of constant readiness to carry loads, ensure reliable, trouble-free and economical operation of the equipment. The repair group is engaged in maintenance of the shop's heat installations. Conducted this year overhaul one of the steam turbines. Cooling tower No. 1 was taken out of operation for reconstruction. Unique work was carried out to restore equipment. A modern complex of a stationary process control system has been purchased and is being installed.
Service starts from the bottom
The turbine shop is the connecting link for the operation of the entire station, the shop equipment works for the final output and release of the main products of the CHPP, - continues the conversation the driver of the central thermal control panel of the turbine shop Alexander Kulik.- After graduating from ASU, I have been working here for ten years. Started as an auxiliary equipment lineman. I like the team, there are opportunities for self-realization, career growth.
Yes, it's very good that we have something to strive for, - echoes a colleague the driver of the central thermal control panel of the boiler shop Alexander Komissarenko.- Everyone overcomes a certain service level, starting from the “bottom”. And regardless of the initial education. I still have a technical school behind me, I study in absentia at the AmSU. I came here following the example of my father, Leonid Alekseevich, who has been working at the station for 30 years.
Young people are well aware that specialists are advancing to the next level, having gone through all the stages, starting from the lowest positions. And only as they gain experience, the prospect of advancement opens up before them. The entire management team of the enterprise started from junior positions. Special knowledge and skills are required from the personnel, any work is very responsible. We need high technical erudition, the ability to make decisions correctly and quickly, and to navigate well in any extreme situation. You need to know the rules of operation, safety precautions and process technology, to know how to work on complex equipment.
In fact, at the station we ourselves grow our personnel, we work closely with educational institutions, - says Vitaly Andriyanov, who himself began his career as an electrician on duty. - The students have an internship at the enterprise, here they have the opportunity to evaluate the work of power engineers, the aspiration and potential of the profession. Often, after graduating from their alma mater, they come to work with us.
Electricity is distributed here
The electrical workshop also belongs to the leading divisions of the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP. Here, electricity, in the production of which many pieces of various equipment are involved, is distributed among consumers.
We, the workshop workers, are responsible for the quality of the supplied energy, maintaining the normalized voltage and frequency parameters of the electric current, - comments Andrey Klimkin, shift supervisor of the electrical shop.- Ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability of energy production is also part of the main tasks of the workshop.
At our station there is no such division, where there would be no electrical equipment. All electrical equipment under the jurisdiction of the electrical shop, and not to count: transformers, switchgears of all voltages and purposes, cable channels and tunnels, control circuits and much more. All this, from the maintenance of the lighting of the station premises to the repair of generators and power transformers, is carried out by my colleagues working in the electrical department.
Andrei Anatolyevich has been at the station for 26 years, served in the army, worked in the Central Electricity Grids, but still returned here. Once upon a time, his father, Anatoly Pavlovich, also worked here.
In the same office with Andrey Anatolyevich, a woman power engineer Natalya Zakharevich works. Her father, Stanislav Nikolaevich Otradnykh, has long been on a well-deserved rest, but he instilled a love for the profession, for the enterprise of his daughter. Her experience at the thermal power plant is more than three decades, she came here as a 19-year-old girl, she graduated from the Novosibirsk Energy Institute in absentia. It takes control and measuring readings of various devices. This is part of her job to control the regime of electrical equipment. He considers his work very important and interesting.
Modernization of devices and equipment of the electrical shop is a constant phenomenon. Various technologies are being introduced, including energy saving. At two transformers, the old arresters were replaced with modern ones. This will keep you safe during a thunderstorm. Maintenance personnel have experience in replacing oil circuit breakers with SF6 circuit breakers that function successfully.
"Night Director"
Infinitely giving commands on the phone, answering endless calls station shift supervisor Alexander Begun. Vitaly Andriyanov aptly calls him a "night director" - because day and night, Alexander Alekseevich and his colleagues are in charge of the entire mini-state, which is the Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP. Rather, the operating modes of the equipment according to the given schedules:
It is necessary to constantly observe the schedules of electrical and thermal load for a day by managing power equipment and operational personnel. If an emergency situation suddenly occurs, it is necessary to immediately make a decision to change the operating mode of the equipment and the station as a whole, notify all interested parties. Actions take place in minutes.
In order for everything that Alexander Alekseevich spoke about to happen instantly, the station constantly improves the level of personnel training, conducts emergency and fire fighting training in an environment close to real. According to authoritative commissions evaluating the actions of the plant personnel, the BTPP looks worthy.
Days of labor protection
Absolutely all specialists of the enterprise are required to have knowledge of safety and labor protection. Therefore, a special unit was created at the station.
The main activity of the industrial safety and labor protection service is aimed at preventing accidents and fires at the enterprise, eliminating injuries and occupational diseases workers, explains leading engineer of the service Sergey Filonov.- We take part in the training and testing of knowledge of the CHP personnel, every month we hold labor protection days, during the year we hold various competitions, competitions in professional skills.
24 hours a day 365 days a year
Vitaly Viktorovich Andriyanov enthusiastically talks about the work of each service of the power plant, and if newspaper space allowed, we would follow his example.
A chemical workshop that annually produces about 250 thousand tons of demineralized water and carries out a lot of various samples and analyses.
The shop of thermal networks, responsible for the state of thermal "arteries" of Blagoveshchensk.
Motor transport workshop, which provides all divisions with cars and specialized vehicles for the delivery of workers and various cargoes.
A heavy equipment workshop, whose workers at the controls of their bulldozers, loaders, excavators provide uninterrupted fuel supply.
Thermal automation and measurement workshop, monitoring the technical condition a variety of control and measuring devices, sensors and means of thermal automation.
The department of dispatching and technological control provides the station with various high-quality communications.
The production and technical department is a think tank that oversees the technical direction of the station.
Most of the time, the workshops are empty, people appear here once every two hours, during a round. At the same time, the equipment is not left unattended - control and management of its operation are carried out from control panels.
All CHP operation is controlled from the main control panel. Workplaces on duty overgrown with hundreds of buttons, dozens of sensors - mechanical, electronic. At a glance the entire production process of the station. We are told how the quantity and quality of the supplied energy are controlled, generators and power lines are controlled at all facilities where the energy of the CHP is supplied.
Information about all events is recorded in a special log.
CHP is a strategic facility, operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
COMPETENT
Andrey Sazanov, director of the branch of JV Blagoveshchenskaya CHPP:
What allows our station to withstand all the challenges of time and trials with dignity? I answer without hesitation: "Of course people." We employ over 600 people. The team is strong, efficient and talented. Its backbone was formed long ago. Moreover, in some cases, the craving for the profession becomes hereditary, real labor dynasties are formed. I sincerely thank each of my employees for conscientious work, dedication, patience, sense of duty and love for their work. This is the basis of the reliability of our energy. I am proud of my team, which ensures the uninterrupted operation of the main and auxiliary equipment around the clock. These people devote themselves to difficult work, where heat, dust, noise are constant conditions. It is very difficult to single out someone personally from the station staff. Everyone works conscientiously, everyone can set any tasks. We welcome alumni every year. Many of those who were hired a few years ago now work in middle management positions. By the way, many specialists who worked for us now occupy higher positions at industry enterprises not only in the Amur region, but throughout the country.
For almost 60 years, our production process and the reconstruction of the station equipment have not stopped for a minute, - comments Igor Usov, director of the branch of JV Raichikhinskaya GRES.- This year, the chemical water treatment was reconstructed and clarifier No. 1 was replaced. Next year, a generator switch will be installed on turbogenerator No. 6. A lot of work is constantly being done to introduce an automated control system for boilers, turbine units, a heating plant and pumping stations. Having worked for a solid period, in fact, in a non-stop mode, the station "stocked up" with an experienced personnel potential, a production base. Once the state district power station provided electricity to all industrial and social housing facilities in the southern districts of the region, and was the only source of electricity for the regional center. Today RGRES
I congratulate all the personnel of Amur Generation and all the power engineers of the Amur region on their professional holiday. We highly appreciate the strong partnerships that have developed with the teams of other Amur energy enterprises. Each of us is always ready to understand colleagues and come to their aid. After all, we have one goal - to make the life of Amur residents comfortable.
I wish all power engineers and their families health, happiness and success. I wish to solve any problems at a high professional level, with love for my work.
Sergey Rudenko, director of the Amur Generation branch of JSC Far Eastern Generating Company.
