Fawley Power Station

From Graces Guide

Fawley Power Station was an oil-fired power station located on the western side of Southampton Water, between the villages of Fawley and Calshot in Hampshire.

Fawley was built by Mitchell Construction Architect Colin Morse RIBA for the CEGB and was commissioned in 1971 as a 2,000-megawatt (MW) power station, with four 500 MW generating units, each consisting of a boiler supplying steam to a turbine that powers an associated generator.

The turbines and generators were made by C. A. Parsons and Co.
