RusHydro ( Russian РусГидро ) (formerly known as HydroOGK ) is a Russian energy company. It was created in 2004 when the Russian energy company Unified Energy System (UES) was split up . RusHydro is the world's second largest operator of hydropower plants and Russia's largest energy supplier. It is also the largest successor to UES.

The company owns and operates hydropower plants in Russia with an installed capacity of around 30,000 MW. These include Russia's largest hydropower plant, “ Sayano-Shushenskaya ” with 6,400 MW, and the Sagorsk pumped storage power plant . RusHydro is the largest producer of hydropower electricity in Russia. On December 23, 2016, a new storage power plant was inaugurated in the North Caucasus .

history

In the course of privatization it was originally planned to combine the hydropower plants - like the nuclear power plants - in a state holding company. The split of UES was very hesitant and was only completed in 2008. RusHydro therefore went public in order to raise capital. Since July 2009, Global Depository Receipts (GDRs) have been traded under the ticker "HYDR" in the International Open Book (IOB) segment of the London Stock Exchange (LSE). Its market capitalization on July 3, 2009 was $ 10 billion. From January 2015 sponsored ADRs were also offered on the international stock exchanges. The company is listed in the RTS-Index . The hydropower has a share of 79%, the other power plants have 21%.
