Alcan Lynemouth Power Station (generally known as Lynemouth Power Station) is a coal and biomass fired power station which provides electricity for the Alcan Lynemouth Aluminium Smelter and the Nationial Grid. It is located on the coast of Northumberland, north east of the town of Ashington in North East England. The station has stood as a landmark on the Northumberland coast since it opened in the 1972, and has been privately owned by aluminium company Rio Tinto Alcan (formerly Alcan) throughout its operation. The station is one of the most recently built coal-fired power stations in the United Kingdom, but with a generating capacity of only 420 megawatts (MW), is now one of the smallest operating. It is the most thermally efficient coal- fired power station in the UK.In 2009, plans were granted to construct a 13 turbine wind farm to the north of the station, and in the same year Alcan announced that they hope to fit the station with carbon capture and storage technology.
