Research of the Composition and Structure of the Russian Power System Power Plants

System Operator is the source of information on the composition and indicators of technological performance of the Russian United Power System and its power plants. However, the activities of the System Operator do not cover the technologically isolated power systems. The System Operator publishes reports on the operation of power plants in terms of installed capacity, installation of new and dismantling of outdated generating facilities. The System Operator does not publish data on the number of power plants in the UPS of Russia, but such data are presented in reports of Russian generating companies and in the Scheme and Program for the Development of the Russian UPS and local power systems. It is extremely important to have information about the composition of power plants for planning the development of power systems and their local energy hubs and energy districts. In this paper the authors study quantitative and structural power plants indicators by type.
