                Well, all very simple turbines are needed for 2 TPPs of Sevastopol and Simferopol.
                They should work on gas with a total capacity of about 1 GW. The excess electricity after the Olympics and taking into account the Novoronezh NPP in the south-west of the Russian Federation is about 2 GW.
                Thus, it is easier and much cheaper to transfer capacities from the continental part of the Russian Federation than to build stations. The stations have one advantage - relative autonomy, relative, since gas in the Crimea is also mainly from the continental part of the Russian Federation.
                Therefore, for peaceful life, large-scale gas generation in the Crimea is not economically profitable. Either to transfer from the continent or to build a nuclear power plant.

                From the point of view of autonomy in the military conditions with Crimea, everything is not very good, and fresh water and electricity and transport and communications. But it is precisely for these conditions that autonomous generating capacities are needed.

              Yeah, but at the same time, as in the days of "Ochakovo and the Conquest of Crimea" they will begin to mold cartridges and shells in regimental workshops, various ammunition, and rivet the same missiles. An army group NEVER (in modern war conditions) is self-sufficient. It always depends on the supply. (For example, the German division consumed 300 tons during battles, in Amer, almost 700 in Iraq). An example of the Hanko post is a good example of "self-sufficiency." Read at your leisure, at the same time you will find out what the attempt to supply him with and the subsequent evacuation resulted in. Yes, and the example of Sevastopol. While it was possible to supply him, he held on. But the Germans in the year of such supply sank 90% of the supplying merchant fleet, but you won’t deliver much to the military .. Plus, the attack on Novorossiysk and all "self-sufficiency" ended. Even the evacuation did not work. And even if the top army officials carry nonsense about self-sufficiency, then that is not right with their heads. in MO.

            When the turbines are, they will definitely give. Or maybe they won’t. The reason may be not in the absence of electricity, but in the absence of a power line (or free capacity in it) to the place of the desired business location. And 150 kilowatts is not much

    They will provide the military in priority order, don’t worry. Even if there is no electricity in the whole Crimea, everything will be okay in the military units. And in case of emergency, there are own diesel generators that can be stretched for a couple of months without external support.
