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
The power plant co-fires with refuse, a waste-derived fuel.[12]
In a November 2022 press release, Siemens Energy and EnBW states the SGT-800 gas turbines installed for the gas plant in 2025 are being constructed so "that the natural gas can be replaced with hydrogen as quickly and completely as possible."[13] EnBW has a goal of having the hydrogen plant fulling operating by 2034.
