The GRES-2 Power Station (or Power Station Ekibastuz) is a coal-fueled power generating station in Ekibastuz, Kazakhstan. GRES-2, built in 1987, has installed capacity of 1,000 MWe and has the world's tallest flue gas stack at high. The chimney is about taller than the Inco Superstack in Sudbury, Canada. Locals refer to it as "the Cigarette Lighter". It is the tallest chimney ever built. The power station is the start of the Powerline Ekibastuz–Kokshetau and uses a transmission voltage of 1,150 kV, the highest transmission voltage in the world. The extension of this line to Elektrostal in Russia is also designed for 1,150 kV, but it currently operates at only 400 kV. About 3/4 of the energy produced by GRES-2 is exported to Russia. Fifty percent of GRES-2 shares are owned by Inter RAO UES, and 50% by Kazakhstan's government. ==Individual units== The planned capacity of 4,000 MWe is to be provided by eight equal units, 500 MWe each. * Unit 1 was launched into service in December, 1990. * Unit 2 was launched into service in December, 1993. * Construction of Unit 3 was started 1990 but later stopped. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ekibastuz GRES-2 Power Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
