The list of thermal power plants in Upper Austria contains information on thermal power plants that are located in the federal state of Upper Austria . Thermal power plants, also known as thermal or caloric power plants, convert heat into electrical energy.

Name or location Type operator Nominal power
( MW ) 		Standard energy
( GWh / year) 		In operation from to Remarks
District heating power plant Linz-Mitte Combined heat and power Linz AG 227 MW 1970 - now The system consists of two units: 1A: gas turbine system (73 MW electrical) with downstream back pressure turbine with three heating condensers for district heat extraction (30 MW electrical, 85 MW district heating), 1B: gas turbine system (77 MW electrical) with downstream extraction condensation turbine with district heat extraction (47 MW electrical, 86 MW district heating).
Biomass power plant Linz (at the FHKW Linz-Mitte location) Combined heat and power Linz AG 8.9 MW 60 GWh 2005 - now Use of biomass wood chips. District heating extraction max. approx. 21 MW.
Residual material heating power plant Linz (at the FHKW Linz-Mitte location) Combined heat and power Linz AG 20 MW 2012 - now Approx. 200,000 tons of residues and approx. 50,000 sewage sludge are burned annually in a fluidized bed furnace . District heating extraction max. approx. 40 MW.
District heating power plant Linz-Süd Combined heat and power Linz AG 172 MW 490 GWh 1993 - now The plant consists of three gas turbine sets (40 MW electrical output each) with three downstream waste heat boilers and two steam turbine sets (36 MW and 16 MW electrical output). The annual district heating generation is approx. 350 GWh.
Voestalpine Linz power plant Steam power plant with steam and district heating extraction voestalpine AG 267 MW 1750 GWh 1941 - now The power plant is used to supply the iron and steel works in Linz itself and covers around 90% of the electricity demand. The main fuel used is dome gas ( furnace gas , coke oven gas ). In addition to electricity, around 650,000 tons of industrial steam and around 100 GWh of district heating are generated annually to heat the office buildings and factories.
Biomass cogeneration plant in Steyr Combined heat and power Bioenergy Steyr GmbH 5.7 MW 45 GWh 2012 - now Use of biomass wood chips. Providing the city of Steyr with district heating. 49% owned by Energie AG Wärme GmbH; 51% belong to EVN Wärme GmbH
District heating plant in Wels Combined heat and power Wels Strom GmbH 47 MW 148 GWh 1959 - now The plant consists of two gas turbine plants (each 15 MW electrical output) with downstream waste heat boilers and an extraction condensation turbine (17 MW electrical output) with condenser and two hybrid cooling towers. The maximum district heating output is 86 MW.
Timelkam combined cycle power plant Combined gas and steam power plant Energie AG Upper Austria 405 MW 2000 GWh 2008 - now Connected to the natural gas network with protection from the Puchkirchen natural gas storage facility , it also provides district heating of 100 MW output with 140 GWh per year
Timelkam Biomass Power Plant Biomass cogeneration plant Energie AG Upper Austria 15 MW 95 GWh 2005 - now In addition, it supplies district heating with an output of 15 MW with 88 GWh per year
Timelkam power plant 1 Condensing power plant Energie AG Upper Austria 5.6 MW (1925) to 62 MW (1958) 1925-1986 Originally built to use lignite from the WTK Hausruckrevier, shut down in 1986
Timelkam power plant 2 Condensing power plant Energie AG Upper Austria 60 (66) MW 1962-2009 Lignite, from 1997 hard coal
Timelkam power plant 3 Combined gas and steam power plant Energie AG Upper Austria 120 MW 1974-2013 Connected to the natural gas network with protection from the Puchkirchen natural gas storage facility, it is used to produce peak electricity with protection from the Puchkirchen natural gas storage facility .
Riedersbach I. Condensing power plant Energie AG Upper Austria 55 MW 1969-2010 Originally built to use lignite from the SAKOG area, it was heavily converted in 1995 to burn hard coal and heating oil , and it also provides district heating.
Riedersbach II Condensing power plant Energie AG Upper Austria 168 MW 700 GWh 1986-2016 Originally built to use lignite from the SAKOG area, after its closure in 1993, it was rebuilt with great technical effort. Mainly burned hard coal and also provides district heating. End of coal-fired power generation on March 23, 2016.
