Table 2: Unit-level details

Unit name Status Fuel(s) Capacity (MW) Technology CHP Start year
Unit 1, timepoint 1 Pre-construction[2][3] fossil gas: natural gas[4] 600[5][6] combined cycle[5] yes[7] 2026 (planned)[8][6][9]
Unit 1, timepoint 2 Pre-construction[2][3] fossil gas: natural gas, other: other[4] 600[5][6] combined cycle[5] yes[7]

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.

Background

For extensive background see also Killingholme Power Station and North Killingholme IGCC Project. This gas unit proposal was originally approved in 2014.[11] However, in September 2021 C.GEN's request for the deferment of the project deadline was approved by the National Infrastructure Planning ministry.[12][11]

C.GEN proposed to build on the former site of Block A of the Killingholme plant, now dismantled, which C.GEN purchased from Uniper.[13] The project is also being considered for carbon-capture-and-storage (CCS) technologies as they become available.[14]

The gas unit project is listed in the T-4 Capacity Market 2024-2025 final auction results, but did not win.[15][16][17]
