OREANDA-NEWS. Unit 10 of the Reftinskaya TPP will be restored and the plant's capacity to be increased in Q 1 2007. Such decision was taken by the Task Force during the meeting held on the power plant's premises. The meeting was chaired by Anatoly Chubais, RAO UES Management Board Chairman.

Currently, power units 9 and 10 of the Reftinskaya TPP are stopped, which was done in order to isolate the fire. The fire at unit 10 started on the night of December 19 to December 20. The fire was put out very quickly, but it damaged the turbine generator, electric cables, some auxiliary equipment and part of the roof above units 9 and 10. It took the plant's repair teams than less 24 hours to put unit 7 back into operation.
 
Now, works are underway at the Reftinskaya TPP to remove the debris of the damaged roof and construct partitions between unit 10 and the operational units. After that experts will give their judgment about the timing for the completion of the restoration at unit 9.
