Detailed description is Vales Point Power Station is one of two coal fired power stations on the shores of Lake Macquarie, New South Wales. Vales Point is located on the southern shore of the lake, near the township of Mannering Park. It has two steam turbines, with a total generating capacity of 1,320 MW (1,770,000 hp) of electricity.Vales Point was the first major power station in New South Wales to be located near its fuel source (coal).In November 2015, the NSW Government sold Delta Electricity, which at that time owned only the Vales Point Power Station, to Sunset Power International for $1 million.A stationVales Point was originally equipped with three turbo-alternators of 200 MW supplied by the English Electric Co. (unit nos. 1 to 3) and one of 275 MW supplied by Associated Electrical Industries (unit no. 4), for a total of 875 MW. The first two units were completed in 1963, and the third in 1964.
