Ilo power station (Central Termoeléctrica de Ilo) is an operating power station of at least 1284-megawatts (MW) in Ilo, Pacocha, Moquegua, Peru with multiple units, some of which are not currently operating. It is also known as Ilo 21.

CHP is an abbreviation for Combined Heat and Power. It is a technology that produces electricity and thermal energy at high efficiencies. Coal units track this information in the Captive Use section when known.

Background
The plant's original coal-fired power plant, referred to as Central Termoeléctrica Ilo21 in Engie's corporate reports, went online in August 2000 with a capacity of 135 MW.[11][12]
A second power plant known as Ilo 31 Cold Reserve was commissioned in 2013. Its three units, each with an installed capacity of 190 MW[13], are equipped to run on diesel or natural gas.[11][14] Plant owner Engie reports the combined effective capacity of these three units at 500 MW.[14]
Another power plant known as Nodo Energético Ilo 41 or NEPI (Nodo Energético Proyecto Ilo) was commissioned in 2016, with the same dual-fuel capability as Ilo 31.[11][14] Each of its three units has an installed capacity of 240 MW[13], with combined effective capacity reported by Engie as 610 MW.[14]
The dual-fuel Ilo 31 and Ilo 41 plants have a combined capacity of 1290 megawatts (MW)[11] and are both currently burning diesel, but Engie's plans call for them to convert to natural gas upon completion of the long-planned Southern Gas Pipeline.[15]
Retirement of Ilo 21 coal plant, Unit 1
In December 2019 Engie announced that the Ilo 21 coal plant would close by December 2022 as part of the company's broader decarbonization strategy.[16][17] Engie Latin America's CEO Frank Demaille confirmed the plant's impending closure in a letter to shareholders that appeared in Engie's 2019 annual report, released in March 2020.[11][17][18]
Engie's 2021 annual report confirmed that the Ilo 21 coal plant was still scheduled for decommissioning by December 31, 2022, and noted that the plant only operated for 14 days in 2021.[19] The December 2022 shutdown of commercial operations at Ilo 21 was reconfirmed in Engie's mid-year presentation to investors in September 2022[18] and in the company's FY 2022 Databook, released in February 2023.[20]
Cancellation of proposed Ilo 21 coal plant, Unit 2
A proposed 135 MW coal-fired, subcritical Unit 2 for the Ilo 2 plant was still listed in Platts' World Electric Power Plants Database[21] as of June 2015 but appears to have been abandoned since it has not been mentioned in company reports or other news sources for more than four years.[11]
