The Dangjin power plant is a coal-fired power plant in South Korea , which is located on the Yellow Sea , approx. 15 km northwest of the city of Dangjin . The power plant is owned by the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) but is operated by the Korea East-West Power Company (EWP).

With an installed capacity of currently 4,000  MW (planned 6,000 MW) it is one of the most powerful coal-fired power plants in South Korea. It is by far the most important EWP power plant (the installed capacity of all EWP power plants is 8,831.4 MW as of April 2015). The annual generation of the power plant in 2013 was 33.067 billion kWh .

Power plant units

The power plant currently consists of 10 blocks. The following table gives an overview:

block Max. Power (MW) Start of operation turbine generator Steam boiler

9 1,000 08/07/2015 MHI MEC
10 1,000 2016 MHI MEC

Power Technology specifies an output of 600 MW for units 1 to 4. Blocks 5 to 8 use supercritical technology with steam temperatures up to 569 ° C (see supercritical water ). For blocks 9 and 10, ultra-supercritical technology is to be used, which uses steam temperatures of 600 ° C. The efficiency of the two blocks should then be 45%.

Others

The cost for the first four blocks amounted to 2.7 billion USD . 630 employees work at the Dangjin power plant. In 2007, the English newspaper The Telegraph ranked Dangjin 12th among the 25 largest CO 2 emitters worldwide with 26.9 million tons . According to this source, Dangjin ranks 71st among the most powerful power plants in the world.
