The Veltheim power station was a large power plant in Veltheim, a district of the East Westphalian city of Porta Westfalica. The facility is located on the right bank of the Weser River, which was used for cooling; the delivery of solid fuels was done via rail connection and road.
The owners during the last operating phase were Uniper Kraftwerke GmbH and the city utilities of Bielefeld. The power plant was decommissioned in 2015 and the power plant site was sold on February 1, 2018, after two years of vacancy. Today it is owned by the development company GKW Veltheim, which plans to demolish large parts of the facilities by 2021. The power plant had an installed capacity of 892 megawatts. Mainly hard coal and natural gas were burned, as well as petroleum coke and heating oil. Since 2003, secondary fuels were also allowed to be co-fired in the power plant.
