| Unit name | Status | Fuel(s) | Capacity (MW) | Technology | CHP | Start year |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Operating[2] | fossil gas: natural gas[3] | 650[2] | combined cycle[2] | not found | 2004[3] |
| 2 | Operating[4] | fossil gas: natural gas[5][6] | 300[5][4] | gas turbine[7] | not found | 2019[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.

Background
In 2021 the project applied for 950 MW existing generation in the T-4 Capacity Market 2024-2025 auction, and they were listed in the final results.[8][9] This would qualify them for government subsidies to guarantee electricity supply.[10]
Spalding Energy Expansion (unit 2) is a peaking plant. It achieved commercial operations in July 2019.[11] The modern turbine is able to use natural gas mixtures with hydrogen contents of up to 30%.[12]
