History

[edit | edit source]

The power station was commissioned in 1968 and was the largest power station in British Hong Kong at that time. The power station was decommissioned starting in 1984 and eventually closed in 1989.[1] Its generators were then moved to Lamma Power Station. The area around the power station is now surrounded by the South Horizons residential area.[2]
