Lamma Power Station
Lamma Power Station, also known as Lamma Island Power Station, is a thermal power station combined with a solar farm located in Po Lo Tsui, Lamma Island, Hong Kong. With a total installed capacity of 3,617 MW, it is the second-largest coal-fired power station in Hong Kong, following the Castle Peak Power Station.
Originally completed in 1982 by Hongkong Electric (HK Electric), the station supplies electricity to Hong Kong Island and Lamma Island. Over the years, the facility has undergone several expansions to enhance its capacity. As of 2021, its power generation infrastructure includes 2,000 MW from coal-fired units, 555 MW from oil-fired gas turbines, 1,060 MW from gas-fired combined-cycle units, and a 1.1 MW solar power system.
The solar component of Lamma Power Station began in 2010 with the installation of a 550 kW solar farm costing HK$23 million. The farm utilized 5,500 amorphous silicon photovoltaic modules, chosen for their efficiency in Hong Kong's high temperatures and tropical climate. By 2013, HK Electric expanded the solar farm to 1 MW, incorporating 8,662 photovoltaic modules over a 13,000 m² area, with the new panels generating 40% more electricity than the original ones.
