Commercial operations have started at the second unit of the Anegasaki thermal power plant in Ichihara City, Japan. Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS) was awarded an upgrade project for the facility in March 2020.
Once complete, the project will have replaced Anegasaki’s aging gas-fired steam power generation units 1-4 with three 650MW gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) generation facilities, reaching a total output of 1,950MW.
With Unit 1 starting operations in February and Unit 2 now in March, Unit 3 should also come online in August 2023.
