ENEMANSA Diesel Power Plant in Spain | 16 MW Oil-Fired Facility

ENEMANSA is a diesel power plant located in Spain, with coordinates 39.2379° N, -3.4233° W. The facility has a capacity of 16 MW and uses oil as its primary fuel. It is owned and operated by ENEMANSA and is currently in operational status. As a diesel power plant, ENEMANSA operates using internal combustion engines that burn oil to generate electricity. Diesel plants are typically used for peaking power or backup generation due to their ability to start quickly and ramp up rapidly. In Spain, such facilities are subject to the European Union's Industrial Emissions Directive (2010/75/EU), which sets emission limits for pollutants like SOx, NOx, and particulate matter. The plant's capacity of 16 MW places it in the small-scale category for power generation. The environmental impact of ENEMANSA includes CO2 emissions from oil combustion, as well as potential local air quality effects. However, its small capacity and likely intermittent operation may mitigate some of these concerns. The plant contributes to grid stability and energy security in the region, providing backup power when needed.

The ENEMANSA diesel power plant uses oil as fuel, resulting in CO2, SOx, NOx, and particulate emissions. Its location in Spain means it operates under EU emissions standards, including the Industrial Emissions Directive. The plant's small capacity (16 MW) and typical peaking role may limit its overall environmental footprint, but local air quality impacts near the facility could be a consideration.
