Northern Power Station
South Australia, Australia
The 1401st largest power station in the world
Northern Power Station was located at Port Paterson, South Australia about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) south of the city centre of Port Augusta. It was coal powered with two 260 MW steam turbines that generated a total of 520 MW of electricity. It was operated and maintained by Alinta Energy and was commissioned in 1985. Northern received coal by rail from the Telford Cut coal mine, 280 kilometres (170 mi) to the north. The plant ceased electricity production in May 2016 and decommissioned and demolished over the following few years.
