Rio Turbio power station

The Rio Turbio power station is a proposed 2 X 120 MW coal-fired power station for Santa Cruz, Argentina. The US$ 650 million project is being proposed by Isolux Corsán. Coal would be supplied by the nearby Rio Turbio coal mine. The station is projected to consume 5,400 tonnes of coal a day and produce 1.6 million tonnes of waste a year. The project was scheduled for finalization in 2012 but is now unknown.
