Anegasaki Thermal Power Station New Unit 2, which JERA Co., Inc. (“JERA”) has been replacing through its subsidiary JERA Power Anegasaki G.K., has begun commercial operation on 1 April.
Thermal Power Station New Unit 2 is an LNG-fired power station that uses a gas turbine combined-cycle power generation system (GTCC). Its generating capacity of approximately 650MW will contribute to a stable electricity supply. As a state-of-the-art power station featuring world-leading power generation efficiency, it mitigates environmental impact by reducing CO2 emissions.
JERA will continue to move steadily forward in replacing aging equipment with state-of-the-art power stations as it works to contribute to a stable electricity supply and reduce CO2 emissions.
