1 EIA for power upgrade Power Upgrade and Lifetime Extension of TPP Nikola Tesla A1&A2

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for Power Upgrade and Lifetime Extension of Units 1 and 2 (2x210 MW) in TPP Nikola Tesla A, Serbia

Striving to ensure security of supply as well as improve quality of service offered, Electric Power Industry of Serbia plans to improve production from existing power generation capacities, as well as to extend a lifetime of the oldest production units. In that respect, installed capacity of Units A1 and A2 in TPP Nikola Tesla A is planned to be upgraded from 210 MW to 225 MW, while their lifetime is to be extended for additional 100.000 h. The project also foresees implementation of flue gas desulphurization systems, based on the wet limestone/gypsum technology, primary measures for NOx emission reduction and reconstruction of electrostatic precipitator and implementation of hybrid filtering solution, aimed at dust emission reduction. The indicated gas treatment systems will enable operation of the considered units of TPP Nikola Tesla A to be in line with national and European regulations.

EIA Study has analyzed all positive and negative environmental impacts expected during both construction and operation phase, and has defined technical and organizational measures to be conducted in order to prevent or reduce negative impact on the environment and human health.
