Coal power plant in Khabarovsk Krai, Russia. Approximate location 48.4136, 135.1175.

CoalKhabarovsk KraiRussia

Khabarovsk TPP-1 is a 385 MW coal power station in Khabarovsk Krai, Russia. It is operated by JSC "FAR EASTERN GK" (JSC "DGK"). Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 482k homes (estimated). It ranks #206 of 678 Russia power plants by installed capacity. In context, coal supplies about 18.4% of Russia's electricity; the national grid averages 450 gCO₂/kWh (35.7% low-carbon) (2025).

Capacity provenance

The public capacity above is the current source-record value. A 2026 tracker candidate lists 385 MW for Khabarovsk-1 power station, but it is not used as the public primary value until scope is verified (unit vs operating vs installed/project total).

Capacity claim grade: C_REVIEW_MANUAL - recommended action: manual_review_only - confidence: unknown. This follows a claim-based data model: value + scope + source + confidence, rather than silently overwriting records.

Data provenance

The capacity and/or fuel fields on this page include a source-backed provenance label from GEM, an official registry, Wikidata, OSM, or a cross-source match.

In context: how this plant compares

At 385 MW, Khabarovsk TPP-1 is well above the median coal plant in Russia (340 MW). 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.

Capacity comparison computed from the WRI Global Power Plant Database; fuel-type context is general engineering background.

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 48.4°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.

Site climate & environmental severity

For a plant’s outdoor hardware — heat-recovery steam generators (HRSG), expansion joints, valves, flanges and their insulation — the local climate sets how fast unprotected steel and coatings degrade. This site sits in a benign, low-corrosion environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C1 — Very low), with thermal cycling the leading environmental stress.

Higher environmental severity is exactly where protective removable insulation pays back most: a sheltered micro-climate slows corrosion, UV and thermal-cycling damage and extends outdoor hardware service life. This is an indicative site-climate context — not a condition assessment of any specific plant or operator.

Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
