The Global Database of Operational Power Generation Plants was first compiled during the two years 2002 to 2004 and is continuously up-dated. The third edition Global Database of Operational Power Generation Plants 2006 has more plants listed with 2,465 additions in 2006, and more detail about individual plants.
The total power generating capacity in megawatts of the operational power generation plants listed in the database amounts to 96% of the world’s capacity. This global database currently lists 18,602 power generation plants worldwide in 184 countries and a higher number of power generating units. The Global Database of Operational Power Plants is growing continuously, both with quantitative additions and qualitatively with more information about individual plants. The power generation plants are classified by fuel (individual fuels or combinations of fuels), fuel group (thermal, hydro, nuclear, RE, hybrid - 100%), capacity MW (100%), units and technology (70%), year of commissioning (76%), ownership type (utility, IPP, CPP - 100%) and owner (71%).
The Global Database of Operational Power Generation Plants is comprehensive over the capacity range and is not restricted to large power generation plants. 662 plants with installed capacity of 1,000MW and over are listed, 742 plants form 500 to 1000 MW, 6,883 plants from 1MW to 50MW, and 3,610 plants with capacity below 1MW. All sections of the power generation industry are covered including electricity utilities, independent power producers (IPPs) and captive power plants (CPPs).
