Aug 25. TGK-10 has participated in competitive power takeoff for 2008 . On July 24, 2008 bids were submitted for the following power plants: Chelyabinsk CHPP-1, Chelyabinsk CHPP-2, Chelyabinsk CHPP-3, Chelyabinsk GRES, Argayashskaya CHPP, Tyumen CHPP-1, Tyumen CHPP-2 and Tobolskaya CHPP. On July 1, 2008 the capacity market was launched in Russia, which ensures transition from payment for installed capacity to payment for maximum available capacity. The main target of the capacity market liberalization is to ensure investors a guaranteed return on investments in power plant construction, thereby creating economic incentive to eliminate capacity shortage. Based on the results of competitive power takeoff, customers will pay TGK-10 for maximum available capacity taken at prices shown in the bid but not higher than the tariff approved by FAS. The capacity market is designed to become the main instrument to return investments for OGK-10. "In line with its investment program, in 2010 TGK-10 plans to commission the second 190 mW combined-cycle plant at Tyumen CPP-1. a bottom turbine to ramp up electric capacity by 210 mW at Tobolskaya CHPP and the third combined-cycle plant at Chelyabinsk CHPP-3 with 200mW capacity. As a result, TGK-10's capacity supplied at market prices will increase, the company's press release says.
