The gas-fired Cuciurgan power station, the largest power station in Moldova, is located in Transnistria, on the shores of the Cuciurgan Reservoir bordering Ukraine. As of 2024 it generates over three quarters of Moldova's electricity. Commissioned in 1964, it formerly burned some coal and fuel oil.
