Kurakhove Power Station (Ukrainian: Курахівська ТЕС, romanized: Kurakhivska TES) was a thermal power plant on Volycha river 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) from Kurakhove in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. By November 2024, it was decommissioned and largely destroyed by Russian forces during the Battle of Kurakhove. By early January 2025, the power plant was captured by Russia.
