Background

For extensive background see also Killingholme Power Station and North Killingholme IGCC Project. This gas unit proposal was originally approved in 2014.[8] However, in September 2021 C.GEN's request for the deferment of the project deadline was approved by the National Infrastructure Planning ministry.[9][8]

C.GEN proposed to build on the former site of Block A of the Killingholme plant, now dismantled, which C.GEN purchased from Uniper.[10] The project is also being considered for carbon-capture-and-storage (CCS) technologies as they become available.[11]

The gas unit project is listed in the T-4 Capacity Market 2024-2025 final auction results, but did not win.[12][13][14] It is therefore presumed shelved.
