NLMK continues technical upgrading despite the crisis

A new 25 MW turbogenerator has been commissioned at NLMK’s main production site in Lipetsk.  The turbogenerator will enhance  power generation, improve the efficiency of the existing high pressure steam generation facilities, ensure reliable power supply to the shops and optimize of utilization of the steam consuming facilities.

The new generating facilities are highly automated. Their state-of-the-art control system allows data to be exchanged with other systems of the Cogeneration Power Plant and also with NLMK’s centralized automated energy accounting system. The data collected during operation is saved to further analyze the equipment performance.

The project, valued at more than RUR 365 million, was implemented as part of Phase 2 of NLMK Technical Upgrade Program.
