It was opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 31 July 1998, being owned by InterGen, a company that is now jointly owned by Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan and China Huaneng Group. It cost £375m, being situated in the borough of Halton. The EPC contractor was Bechtel. The site trades as Rocksavage Power Company Ltd.
