The Surgut-2 Power Station on the Ob River in Russia is the second-largest gas-fired power station in the world, and largest in Russia[2] with an installed capacity of in 2022.[3] it is the gas-fired power plant (of those Climate Trace was able to monitor) which emits the most greenhouse gas with 31.5 million tonnes.[4]
Expansion of the power plant involved the construction of two units by December 2011, costing nearly, which increased its original capacity of to The two new blocks do not use dried oil gas as is the case in the other six generators. They consume natural gas as a fuel, utilizing combined cycle, with overall efficiency rates of 56%. General Electric is the manufacturer and supplier of the generators.
