Vuhlehirska power station (also known as Vuhlehirska TES, Ukrainian: Вуглегірська ТЕС) is a fossil fueled thermal power station located in Svitlodarsk, Ukraine. It consists of 7 units with a total power output of 3,600 MW and was put in service between 1972 and 1977.[2] The power station has 4 coal fired units which operate regularly as a base-load power source, and 3 gas fired boilers which are used as peaking units.[3] The Vuhlehirska power station has a flue gas stack that is 320 meters tall (1050 feet), which is one of the tallest structures in Ukraine. Since August 1995 the power station is operated by Centrenergo.[4] The power station has an outward appearance similar to that of the Zaporizhzhia thermal power station as they were both constructed in the early 1970s
