The tallest chimney of the power station is 200 metres tall.
A consortium formed by Alstom, Sumitomo and IHI Corporation was commissioned to upgrade the 315 MW group to 345 MW each at a total cost of US$315 million.[1]
There were plans to add another generating group of 500 MW at Işalniţa Power Station[2] at a cost of US$750 million. The plans were later canceled.
There are plans with Alro Slatina for construction of a new unit of 850 MW that will use natural gas as fuel.[3]
The recovery and resilience plan for Romania included decommisioning of Unit 8, which was achieved in 2021.[4]
Unit 7 stopped production from January 1, 2024 and was put in reserve, according with Complex Energetic Oltenia's plan to restructure the company. It will be in reserve until the end of 2025, after which it will be decommissioned.[5]
