Summary[edit]

Description
English: Marchwood National Grid Substation This substation feeds power at 400 KV into the national grid from Marchwood Power Station (under construction). The power station combines gas and steam turbines to generate 824 MW at 58% efficiency; it will cost £380m to build, see http://www.marchwoodpower.com . From right, just seen are the tops of the chimneys, then a white building with air vents (probably the main turbine hall). The nearest white building probably contains electrical switchgear. It is apparent from the white tubes carrying power from this building to the pylon that the switchgear is gas insulated. In the background is the silver dome of Marchwood Incinerator (unrelated). In the foreground is East Road.
