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
Sembcorp is proposing to build on the former site of the Teesside power station, retired in 2013 and subsequently dismantled.[5] They submitted the original application for this plant in 2017, with approval in 2019.[6] Sembcorp has also announced that it plans for the plant to be "carbon-capture ready" as the technology becomes available.[7]
The application has not been withdrawn but there has been very little news since 2019. In 2021 the project applied for 543 MW new generation in the T-4 Capacity Market 2024-2025 auction, but they were not listed in the final results.[8][9][10] This would qualify them for government subsidies to guarantee electricity supply.[11] It is unclear if financing depended on these subsidies.
