Kashira Power Plant is a coal-fired power plant at Kashira in Moscow Oblast, Russia. Its first unit was commissioned in 1922 with a power capacity of 12 MW. As of today, it has an installed power capacity of 1,910 MW and a heating capacity of 533 MWt,[1] and consists of 6 units. Double units 1 and 2 have capacity of 300 MW, and single units 4, 5 have capacity of 300 MW each, unit 6 has capacity of 330 MW. In addition, unit 7 has thermal capacity of 80 MW.
In 1951 a HVDC link with 30 MW built from the components of Elbe-Project to Moscow was built. Its terminal is situated west of the 110 kV switchyard at 54°51'29"N 38°14'45"E. However it is not in service any more. The power plant has an interesting feature as one of its two main chimneys serves as electricity pylon.
