Seabank Power Station

It is next to the former Terra Nitrogen Severnside fertiliser works, which was closed by Growhow UK in January 2008.

[1] The £435 million plant is run as Seabank Power Ltd.[2] The initial partners in the company were BG Group (former part of British Gas) and Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE), however in 2010 BG Group, as part of its reorganisation sold its 50% share of the plant to Cheung Kong Infrastructure Holdings Limited[3] The company is now owned by Cheung Kong Infrastructure Holdings Limited, and SSE.

It was built in two parts, with Seabank 1 (755 MW) started in January 1996 and completed in March 2000.

The station has a number of step up transformers that allow connection to the National Grid high voltage electricity transmission system via the Seabank 400 kV GIS substation.

The HRSGs were built by Standard Fasel Lentjes (known as SFL and now owned by NEM Energy) and Stork Power Services, both Dutch companies.
