Taean Thermal Power Plant Units 9 and 10
Taean Thermal Power Plant Units 9 and 10 with power generation capacity of 1,050MW each are the largest thermal power plant in Korea. By enhancing power generation efficiency by about 1.5%, effects of reducing 900,000 tons of greenhouse gas emissions and saving KRW 30 billion on fuel expenses are generated. The thermal power plant is believed to have enhanced technological prowess by one notch.
