Vilnius Combined Heat and Power Plant or Vilnius Power Plant-3 was a power plant in Vilnius, Lithuania.
Vilnius Combined Heat and Power Plant has a capacity of 603 MW heating power and 360 MW electric power.[1] It was considered the most polluting electric power plant in Lithuania.[2] As a consequence, Vilnius Combined Heat and Power Plant was closed in 2016.[3] In 2016 a new waste-to-energy Vilnius Biofuel Power Plant was built next to the CHP plant.
In July 2024, equipment from Vilnius Power Plant-3 transfered to Ukraine to aid rebuilding energy infrastructure in war-torn regions.[4]
