The plant, meant to provide much of Nizhny Novgorod with steam (for district heating) and hot water, was being constructed in the 1980s, but the construction was stopped soon after the Chernobyl disaster. Currently the building is rented out to a variety of businesses, including a liquor bottling plant.
