Gas-piston power stations (GPPS)

GPPS with a capacity of 9,375 is planned to be installed on the territory of the Kryvyi Rih plant and used as a stationary installation of continuous electricity generation for the clinker firing line. Generated electricity will be consumed by own production.

The installation of a gas-piston power stations will satisfy the plant’s electricity needs and reduce its dependence on the general energy system.

Economic effect

The economic impact is calculated as the difference between the cost of all the electricity generated by the GPPS and the cost of the DAM (Day-Ahead Market). Given that the price of electricity generated by the GPPP is currently significantly lower than the price of electricity from the general grid, the installation of a gas-fired power plant will reduce the company’s costs and provide an EBITDA boost of USD 3.7 mln USD annually. Annual output of the station: ~58 GW
