Vankor GTPP

Gas power plant in Krasnoyarskiy, Russia. Approximate location 67.8036, 83.5328.

GasKrasnoyarskiyRussia

Vankor GTPP is a 200 MW gas power station in Krasnoyarskiy, Russia. It is operated by Vankorneft JSC. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 225k homes (estimated). It ranks #308 of 678 Russia power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2007, it is around 19 years old — relatively modern. In context, gas supplies about 44.7% of Russia's electricity; the national grid averages 450 gCO₂/kWh (35.7% low-carbon) (2025).

Data provenance

The capacity and fuel fields on this page are source-record values from the upstream open dataset. They are useful for identification and ranking, but they have not been upgraded to a 2026 registry/GEM-location verified value.

In context: how this plant compares

At 200 MW, Vankor GTPP is around the median gas plant in Russia (200 MW). Gas plants burn natural gas either in open-cycle turbines for fast peaking, or in combined-cycle units that recover exhaust heat in an HRSG to reach roughly 55–62% efficiency — the cleanest-burning fossil option.

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

Climate zone & how it works

This gas plant burns natural gas in a turbine — often in a combined-cycle setup — to generate electricity. It sits in a subarctic (boreal) climate (Köppen Dfc) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 67.8°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
