Project Details

Table 2: Unit-level details

Unit name Status Fuel(s) Capacity (MW) Technology CHP Start year
ICCC, timepoint 1 Construction[2][3] fossil gas: natural gas[4] 200[4] ICCC[5][4] yes[3] 2025 (planned)[4]
ICCC, timepoint 2 Announced[5] fossil gas: natural gas [75%], other: hydrogen (unknown) [25%][5][4] 200[4] ICCC[5][4] yes[3]

CHP is an abbreviation for Combined Heat and Power. It is a technology that produces electricity and thermal energy at high efficiencies. Coal units track this information in the Captive Use section when known.
