The Surgut-2 Power Station on the Ob River in Russia is the second-largest gas-fired power station in the world, and largest in Russia{{in lang|ru}} [https://web.archive.org/web/20071013080315/http://ogk-4.ru/?obj=id2300&id=1684 ОГК-4: Сургутская ГРЭС-2] with an installed capacity of {{nowrap|5687.1 MW}} in 2022.{{Cite web|url=https://www.unipro.energy/about/structure/affiliate/surgutskaya/details/|title = Общая информация - Юнипро}} {{As of|2021}} it is the gas-fired power plant (of those Climate Trace was able to monitor) which emits the most greenhouse gas with 31.5 million tonnes.{{Cite web |title=Electricity Generation |url=https://github.com/climatetracecoalition/methodology-documents/blob/main/Power/Power%20sector-%20Electricity%20Generation%20Methodology.pdf}}

Expansion in 2011

Expansion of the power plant involved the construction of two {{nowrap|≈400 MW}} units by December 2011, costing nearly {{nowrap|RUB 19 billion}}, which increased its original capacity of {{nowrap|4800 MW}} to {{nowrap|5597.1 MW.{{cite news|last=Shuster|first=Simon|url=http://uk.reuters.com/article/idUKL1780642420080717|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130201073916/http://uk.reuters.com/article/idUKL1780642420080717|url-status=dead|archive-date=February 1, 2013|title=E.ON building world's biggest power plant in Russia|date=2008-07-17|publisher=Reuters|accessdate= 2010-04-02}}{{in lang|ru}}[http://energyland.info/news-show--electro-68284 Энергоблок №7 Сургутской ГРЭС-2 включен в энергосистему России], energyland.info: Электроэнергетическая Россия, Уральский ФО, 03/30/2011{{in lang|ru}} [http://www.t-i.ru/article/19142/ Реальный сектор], Тюменские Известия, 16.06.2011, Андрей Фатеев}} The two new blocks do not use dried oil gas as is the case in the other six generators. They consume natural gas as a fuel, utilizing combined cycle, with overall efficiency rates of 56%. General Electric is the manufacturer and supplier of the generators.
