The Kohtla-Järve Power Plant (Estonian: Kohtla-Järve soojuselektrijaam) is an oil shale-fired power plant in Kohtla-Järve, Estonia, about 15 km to north-west of the Ahtme Power Plant.

It is owned by VKG Soojus, a subsidiary of Viru Keemia Grupp.

[1] The Kohtla-Järve Power Plant (Põhja Power Plant) was commissioned in 1949–1967 with designed electrical capacity 48 MW.

This was the first time when the oil shale pulverized-firing combustion technology was implemented for power generation.

[4] At the beginning the plant used Riley Stoker boilers and General Electric generators; however, boilers developed for the pulverized firing of coal and lignite were not fit to work on pulverized oil shale.
