{{CoalSwarm}}The '''GreenGen power station''' (华能天津IGCC示范电站一期) is a 250-megawatt (MW) integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plant and proposed 800 MW carbon capture and storage (CCS) plant in Tianjin, China.
GreenGen was originally seen as a follow-up to the US's [[FutureGen]],<ref name=jt/> which has been cancelled.
