It is owned and operated by the Ørsted company and has an electrical generation capacity of 700 MWe. The chimney is 189.89 metres (623.0 ft) tall. The power station uses cleaned wastewater as coolant, and the residual heat is used for district heating; directed via pipes into Aarhus. The power station went in to service in 1968 as a coal-fuelled power station, but has been expanded and refitted a number of times since its inception. In 2016, one of two boilers was converted to biomass-fuelled, using wood chips and straw primarily.
