Republika Power Plant (Bulgarian: ТЕЦ Република) is a power plant situated near the city of Pernik, western Bulgaria. It has an installed capacity of 180 MW. There is a €6,500,000 reconstruction plan undergoing for the fifth generator. The plant suffered damage during the 2012 Pernik earthquake, with one of its chimneys partially collapsing, leading to a reduced capacity.[1] The chimney was later demolished, as evidenced by Google Maps satellite images.
