Amid an ongoing energy crisis, Japan’s biggest power generator, JERA, is set to start a new 1.07 gigawatt (GW) coal-fired power plant in Taketoyo early next month. The thermal power station is a replacement for three old oil-fired units. The unit has achieved 46% generation efficiency and co-fires biomass to slash emissions. For trial runs, JERA is using coal from Australia and Indonesia.
