Capacity of Russian power plants by type
The total capacity of all power plants in the country was 270 million kilowatts in 2020, reaching 281 million kilowatts by 2024. The table provides annual data for the five-year period, broken down by generation type. The rows distinguish between total capacity, thermal capacity, and hydroelectric capacity, allowing for the tracking of each category's contribution to Russia's power system at the end of each calendar year

How to read this table
Classification by power plant type facilitates an assessment of the country's energy capacity structure and changes in volume over five years. Rows are grouped by key generation types, enabling comparison of thermal and hydroelectric capacity with the total capacity of all facilities. Year-on-year data comparison demonstrates the distribution of installed capacity from 2020 to 2024, providing precise information on energy infrastructure development in millions of kilowatts
What is visible in these numbers
The table is 80% filled: Rosstat does not publish every cell, and the gaps are left as they are rather than interpolated.
