Yawata Works power station may be a 149-megawatt (MW) coal-fired power station in Kitakyūshū, Fukuoka, Kyūshū Prefecture, Japan.

Though a Nippon Steel leaflet showed six IPP plants, governmental data only indicated 5 Nippon Steel plants with 1,295 MW of capacity total.

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