Project-level coal details

  • Coal source(s): Ostrava-Karviná Mines

Background

The Detmarovice power station is a black coal-fired power station owned and operated by the CEZ Group. It consists of four 200 MW subcritical units commissioned in 1975-76. The power station was originally formed as part of the Ostrava-Karviná Power Stations; since 1990, it has been an independent organizational unit.[10]

Unit 1 (200 MW) was retired in 2019.[11]

In 2021, CEZ Group announced they would close all of the coal units at the end of the 2022-2023 heating season.[12] They plan to build 4 gas-fired cogeneration units of 45 MW each in its place.[13] However, there were no additional developments in the plans for the gas units, and discussions were taking place about using the coal site for a nuclear power plant instead.[14]

As of April 2024, the units would at least run through the 2024/25 heating season. Small gas and biomass units were in development.[15]
