After the ТЭЦ-2 (Thermal Power Plant – 2) was built in 1984, the port in Vladivostok (Zolotoy Rog Bay) is ice-free for almost the whole year. Before that, ice breakers helped making it ice-free.
Vladivostok is not a warm-water port, but is kept ice free by ice breakers, according to Encyclopedia.com, allowing shipping into the harbor. Vladivostock is Russia’s major Pacific seaport, the main base of its Pacific fleet, and a base for fishing and, formerly, whaling fleets.
