The Waigaoqiao Power Plant is a coal-fired power plant in China located on the East China Sea in the Pudong District of Shanghai City .
Data
With an installed capacity of 5 GW , Waigaoqiao is one of the most powerful coal-fired power plants in the world and serves to cover the base load .
Power plant units
The power plant consists of three plants with a total of eight blocks of different capacities, which were built between 1995 and 2008. The following table gives an overview:
| investment | block | Max. Power (MW) | Start of operation | turbine | generator | Steam boiler |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | 300 | 1995 | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric |
| 2 | 300 | 1996 | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | |
| 3 | 300 | 1996 | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | |
| 4th | 300 | 1997 | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | |
| 2 | 5 | 900 | 2004 | Siemens | Siemens | Alstom |
| 6th | 900 | 2004 | Siemens | Siemens | Alstom | |
| 3 | 7th | 1,000 | 2008 | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric | |
| 8th | 1,000 | 2008 | Shanghai Electric | Shanghai Electric |
The cost of the plant 2 were approximately 1.8 billion USD and the Appendix 3 for an estimated 1.2 (or 1.5) billion. Blocks 5 and 6 use supercritical steam generators, blocks 7 and 8 use ultra-supercritical steam generators (see supercritical water ).
Units 5 and 6 achieve an efficiency of 42%, units 7 and 8 of up to 46%. This means that units 7 and 8 only need 282 grams of coal to generate one kWh .
Owner and operator
The power plant is divided into three plants owned by different companies. Shanghai Waigaoqiao No.2 Power Generation Co., Ltd is given as the owner of plant 2 . Annex 3 is owned by the Shanghai Waigaoqiao No.3 Power Generation Co., Ltd . The Shenergy Company or the Shanghai Electric Power Company is specified as the operator of the entire power plant .
Others
The English newspaper The Telegraph ranked Waigaoqiao in 2007 with 26 million t in 16 of the 25 largest CO 2 emitters worldwide.
