Unit name Status Fuel(s) Capacity (MW) Technology CHP Start year Retired year
Unit 1, timepoint 1 Operating[2][3] fossil gas: natural gas[2][4] 395[2] gas turbine[4] yes[5] 2001[2]
Unit 1, timepoint 2 Operating[6][7] fossil gas: natural gas [85%], other: hydrogen (green) [15%][8] 395[8] gas turbine[8] yes[5] 2023[8] 2023[8]
Unit 1, timepoint 3 Pre-construction[6][7] fossil gas: natural gas [70%], other: hydrogen (green) [30%][8] 395[8] gas turbine[8] yes[5]

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.
