Donghae
Location: Gangwon-do
Operator: Korean East-West Power Co
Configuration: 2 X 220 MW
Fuel: anthracite coal, RDF
Operation: 1998-1999
Boiler supplier: ABB
T/G supplier: Doosan
EPC: Black & Veatch, Kopec, Hanjung
Quick facts: The plant
has two 220-MW units with CFB boilers designed for local anthracite, the
largest such units in the country. Construction started in early 1993 and
Unit-1 went commercial in Oct 1998. Fuel burn is about 1.2mn tpy. During
commissioning, the boiler contractor withdrew from the project and KEPCO
finished up required modifications to complete the process. A small amount
of RDF is used for fuel and test burns of bituminous coal are ongoing. Photograph courtesy of Korea

Honam
Location: Jeollanam-do
Operator: Korean East-West Power Co
Configuration: 2 X 250 MW
Fuel: bituminous coal, heavy oil
Operation: 1973
Boiler supplier: Babcock-Hitachi, Korea Heavy Industries
T/G supplier: Alsthom
EPC: Lahmeyer
Quick facts: Honam was originally built to use heavy fuel oil. Units 1&2
were converted to hard coal in 1985 and 1984, respectively. The plant
supplies electricity to the Yeosu Industrial Complex, a large
petrochemical site with 149 individual companies. The Yeosu Complex is not
well connected to the national grid and the Honam power station is
therefore scheduled for one of the largest life-extension projects yet
undertaken for a Korean coal-fired plant. This will cost KRW 168.1bn. Photograph courtesy of Korea
