The N210-12.9-538/538 super high-pressure intermediate reheat condensing, three-cylinder double exhaustion turbo set turbine, installed at Unit 1, was manufactured by Dong Fang of China. It has a rated capacity of 210 MW and a normal speed of 3,000 RPM. The steam flow at the rated parameter at full load is 652.5 t/h at the temperature of 538 °C with a live steam pressure of 12.9 MPa. The turbine was delivered in July 1991.

The boiler is a DG-680/13.7-14 type of super high pressure, one intermediate re-heat cycle and single drum natural cyclic type boiler manufactured by Dong Fang of China. It has a steam generating capacity of 680 t/h generating 541 °C 13.73 MPa pressured steam at the boiler outlet. At full load, it consumes 52695.4m3/h of natural gas. The efficiency of the boiler is rated at 94.93%. Transformers are manufactured by Shen Yang of China.
