Abstract. The report shows the need for the development and implementation of new approaches
to operational management of the modes and the efficiency of the equipment of thermal power
plants on the basis of modern information technologies to significantly improve the economy of
operation of thermal power plants by complex solution of the tasks of block and station levels.
The proposed approach is the adjustment of measured parameters, ensuring the accuracy of all
the main parameters required for material, heat and energy balances for each unit and the station
in general.
