Kogan Creek Power Station was officially opened in 2007, making it the newest addition to CS Energy's diverse power portfolio.

The coal-fired power station, located in the western Darling Downs near Chinchilla in Queensland, can provide up to 750 megawatts of baseload electricity - enough to power almost 1 million Australian homes.

Kogan Creek Power Station contains the largest single generating unit in Australia and has one of the lowest environmental impacts of any coal-fired power station nationwide, with low levels of water consumption and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

Coal is supplied to the power station from the adjacent Kogan Creek Coal mine, which is also owned by CS Energy.

The power station is also the site of the Kogan Creek Solar Boost Project, which will showcase how renewable and conventional electricity generation technologies can be integrated.  CS Energy plans to install a 44 MW solar thermal addition at the station to increase its capacity and improve plant efficiency.
