Omuta Works power station may be a 85-megawatt (MW) coal-fired power station in Fukuoka, Kyushu Prefecture, Japan.

The units were not listed in governmental lists. The 2008 CSR report of Mitsui Chemical indicated a coal-fired power station, but recent documents do not include any mention of a unit or units.

Given the lack of available information related to this site, the capacity is not included in Global Energy Monitor's Global Coal Plant Tracker.
