Nadahama Works power station also known as Shinko Kobe, may be a two-unit 67-megawatt (MW) coal-fired power station at the Kobe Steel Works in Kobe, Hyogo prefecture, Japan. Nadahama Works power station was the original power source for the steel mill before construction of the Kobe Works power station.

Given the lack of available information related to these units, they are not included in Global Energy Monitor's Global Coal Plant Tracker.
