Artyomovskaya TPP-2 power station is a 420 MW coal power station in Primorsky Krai, Russia. It is operated by RusHydro PJSC [100%]. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 526k homes (estimated). It ranks #191 of 678 Russia power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2026, it is around 0 years old — recently built. In context, coal supplies about 18.4% of Russia's electricity; the national grid averages 450 gCO₂/kWh (35.7% low-carbon) (2025).

In context: how this plant compares
At 420 MW, Artyomovskaya TPP-2 power station is well above the median coal plant in Russia (340 MW). Technically it is described as subcritical. Coal plants burn pulverised coal to raise high-pressure steam for a turbine; they run as baseload but are the most carbon-intensive mainstream source and the first targeted for retirement or efficiency retrofits.

Climate zone & how it works
This coal plant burns coal to raise high-pressure steam that spins a turbine-generator. It sits in a monsoon warm-summer continental climate (Köppen Dwb) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 43.4°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
