Table 2: Unit-level details

Unit name Status Fuel(s) Capacity (MW) Technology CHP Start year
IC, timepoint 1 Operating[2][3][4] fossil gas: natural gas[2] 20[2][5] ICCC[2] yes[4] 2024[6][5][4]
IC, timepoint 2 Announced[2][3][4] fossil gas: natural gas, other: hydrogen (unknown)[2] 20[2][5] ICCC[2] yes[4]

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.
