The following table provides an overview over the power plant capacity installed in the APG control area, listed according to power plant types. Power plants from subordinate grids are included, as long as they are known to APG. Power plants located directly at a control area border are considered in proportion to the quantity which they feed into the APG grid. Due to varying data volumes and definitions, the values stated here do not correspond to those published on the EEX transparency platform.
