The power plant Tuas is an oil and gas power plant in Singapore , which in the industrial zone Tuas of District Southwest is located. Jurong Island is to the east of the power plant .

With an installed capacity of 2,670  MW , Tuas is one of the most powerful power plants in Singapore and serves to cover the base load .

Power plant units

The power plant consists of a total of six units with different capacities that went into operation from 1999 to 2005. Units 1 and 2 are normal steam generators that were originally fueled with oil, but now mostly with natural gas . Blocks 3 to 6 are gas-and-steam turbines . In 2012, Alstom received the order to build an additional 400 MW gas and steam turbine. When it is planned to be completed, it will replace one of the 600 MW units. The order value for this is around EUR 260 million. The plant went into operation in December 2013. The following table gives an overview:

history

Planning and construction of the two 600 MW units began in 1994 by the Public Utilities Board (PUB), which was Singapore's state utility at the time. In the following year, Tuas Power Pte Ltd (TP) was founded as a 100% subsidiary of Temasek Holdings as part of the beginning privatization of the electricity industry in Singapore. In 1997 the PUB granted TP a license to generate electricity. In April 1998 the Singapore Electricity Pool (SEP) was established. TP became a member of the SEP and started trading electricity.

With a market share of 24.5%, Tuas Power Generation 2012 was in third place behind Senoko Energy (26.3%) and YTL PowerSeraya (25.1%).

Most electricity in Singapore is now generated using combined cycle gas and steam power plants . The share of natural gas in electricity generation was 84.3% in 2012, that of oil (products) was 12.3%. The peak load for electricity consumption in 2005 was between 5,083 MW in January and 5,475 MW in October; in 2012 it was between 6,289 MW in February and 6,639 MW in May.
