Background on Plant
Wilhelmshaven power station is a one-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 788.1 MW. The plant was completed in 1976, and is owned by E.On.[1]
Proposed plant
There was a proposal by E.ON Kraftwerke to build a 550 megawatt unit at the power station with a notional commissioning date of 2014. Power in Europe reported that "planning will be complete by the end of 2008, with construction beginning as early as 2010."[2] The plant was canceled in 2010.[3][4]
