Brady Thermal IPP ProjectOur Company / Investment Projects
JERA acquired equity interest in two thermal power generation plants, Canal Thermal Power Station (power output 1,458MW) and Bucksport Thermal Power Station (power output 175MW).
The northeastern United States tends to have tight electricity supply-demand in winter. For this reason, both the Canal and Bucksport Thermal Power Stations contribute to stable supply as significant sources of electricity in the region during emergencies and peak times. In addition, JERA will pursue commercially viable decarbonization paths including low carbon biofuels in place of traditional fuels, as well as large scale renewable projects, blending hydrogen in gas turbines, and energy storage solutions in the future.
