Elektrogorsk, Industrial town in Moscow Oblast, Russia
Elektrogorsk stands 75 kilometers east of Moscow, featuring residential neighborhoods and industrial facilities across an area elevated at 133 meters above sea level.
The settlement emerged in 1912 following the construction of Russia's first large peat-fired thermal power station, named Elektroperedacha, and received town status in 1946.
The local population maintains traditions through community celebrations while adapting to modern urban life within the Moscow Oblast administrative region.
The town experiences temperature variations from minus 30 degrees Celsius in winter to 25 degrees Celsius in summer, requiring residents to prepare for extreme weather conditions.
The thermal power station that sparked the town's foundation utilized local peat resources, establishing Elektrogorsk as a pioneer in Russian electrical power generation.
