Delimara Power Station

The Delimara Power Station includes four electricity generation plants, with a total combined nominal installed capacity of 537.8 MW.

Part of the electricity production was relocated to the more modern Delimara power plant and the EU limit values for emissions could thus be reached.

Under Joseph Muscat's government, the new energy policy of Malta envisaged the demolition of the 1992 Delimara Phase 1 Heavy Fuel Oil power plant.

The Delimara Power and Gas project was developed by Electrogas Malta Limited, a consortium that includes SOCAR, Siemens and Gem Holdings.

the independent media and various pressure groups criticised the project, including the procurement process and accused the government of blatant corruption.
