 * Speedy keep, obviously notable. I don't know why anyone would think that a large power station would not be notable, but a proper WP:BEFORE would soon have set you straight. The effect of warm water from the station on the lake ecology has been extensively studied;
 * Boitsov, M.P. (1971), "The effect of warm water discharged by the Konakovo Power Station on the distribution and growth of youn fishes of Ivan'kovo Resorvoir", Journal of Ichthyology, vol. 11, iss. 2, pp. 257-262.
 * The above is a translation from the original Russian in Voprosy ikhtiologii, vol. 11, pp. 325-331.

 * The above is a translation from the original Russian in Voprosy ikhtiologii, vol. 14, pp. 1046-1054.
 * T. Langford, Ecological Effects of Thermal Discharges, briefly discusses Konakovo and lists at least two more papers [Sappo (1975), Sappo (1976)] in the biliography which are explicitly about warm water from Konakovo.
 * Korgina, Y.M.; Mordukhay-Boltovskoy, F.D (1979), "Effect of heated water from the Konakovo power station on chironomid larvae in Ivan'kovo reservoir", Hydrobiological Journal, vol. 15, iss. 2
 * Other sources more concerned with the engineering and construction of the plant include,
 * An article in The Daily Review, vol. 15, p. 71 has an article that includes this snippet; "Mikhail Poliakov, Hero of Socialist Labour, leader of the erectors' team, is installing the fifth million kilowatt of capacities at the Konakovo power station, or four times in excess of pre -revolutionary Russia's total power output." This is clearly a longer article, but that's all I could get in snippet view.
 * Thermal Engineering, vol. 23 has some discussion of the station at page 18 (sorry, couldn't get the name of the article) and the article at page 32, "Feedwater and condensate of supercritical thermal power station generating units using ammonia and hydrazine" might be largely about Konakovo Power Station judging by the snippet.
 * Problems in the Design and Operation of Thermal Power Stations discusses Konakovo Power Station.
 * These are only the sources that come up in the English language. I'm pretty sure that there must be much more in Russian language sources if a Russian speaker would care to look for us. SpinningSpark 23:37, 21 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep. For most power stations, references can be expected to exist. Digging may be required, especially for older ones and those in non-English-speaking countries. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 16:00, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per the research done by . They have shown multiple RS about the construction and impact of the power plant and there is no doubt more available in the Russian language. All sufficient to confer notability per WP:GNG and provide the basis for an article. Hence, keep. --Mark viking (talk) 16:43, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep On the basis of the BEFORE search conducted by SpinningSpark, above, I'm convinced this passes the GNG. Chetsford (talk) 04:45, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
