The Shatura Power Station (Russian: Шату́рская ГРЭС, romanized: Shaturskaya GRES, or GRES-5 locally) is one of the oldest power stations in Russia.[1] The facility is located in Shatura, Moscow Oblast, and generates power by utilizing two 210 MW units, three 200 MW units, and one 80 MW unit, for a total capacity of 1.1 GW.[2][failed verification] Built in 1925, the power station initially used peat as its fuel source.[3] Later on, the power plant was diversified into multifuel. In 2010, a new combined cycle block of 400 MW was installed.[4] The 80 and 400 MW blocks can not work on peat.
