Callide Power Station is located near Biloela, in Central Queensland, Australia. It is coal powered with eight steam turbines with a combined generation capacity of 1,720 MW of electricity. Callide A was commissioned in 1965 and refurbished in 1998. The coal for Callide comes from the nearby Callide Coalfields and water from the Awoonga dam and Stag Creek Pipeline.〔(InterGen ) page on Callide. Retrieved 2008-05-18〕 ==Callide A== At the end of 1962 approval was granted for a new power station near Biloela. Work commenced at the site in February 1963. The design of the plant based around separate generating units and a control room was a first for Queensland.〔 It was also the first power station in Queensland to use dry cooling towers.〔 It has four 30 MW steam turbines, the first of which was operating by June 1965. From its commissioning a drought meant water restrictions at the station reduced output.〔 The second set was expected to be operating by May 1966, but was lost at sea while being transported from England.〔 A replacement unit arrived in June 1967. The third set was operating in October 1967 and the fourth in May 1969.〔 The total cost of the project was A$28.7 million.〔 Callide A has been in storage since 2001, except for Unit 4 which is being used for the Callide Oxyfuel project.〔(Callide Oxyfuel Project )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Callide Power Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
