Limits RegistryOperated by China Datang Corporation, Tuoketuo was built out in six phases from 1995 through the early 2010s, ultimately generating roughly 33 TWh of electricity annually. It remains a striking illustration of the scale gap between the largest fossil-fuel plants and the largest hydro or nuclear plants, which run several times larger still.
The question, scope, and sources behind this Registry record.
Operated by China Datang Corporation, Tuoketuo was built out in six phases from 1995 through the early 2010s, ultimately generating roughly 33 TWh of electricity annually. It remains a striking illustration of the scale gap between the largest fossil-fuel plants and the largest hydro or nuclear plants, which run several times larger still.
The Tuoketuo Power Station in Inner Mongolia, China, has a total installed capacity of 6,720 MW across a series of 600 MW generating units commissioned in phases, making it the largest coal-fired power station in the world by installed capacity.
Change a parameter to stress-test whether a proposed result is still inside the published specification. This is an audit aid, not a proof checker.
This record has no editable parameters. Read the formal question and assumptions before challenging it.
Current frontiers derived from accepted Claims.
An observed or demonstrated result; no opposing bound is implied.
The frontier is not sacred
Most progress starts with a disagreement that survives contact with evidence. If you can push the known lower bound up or pull the upper bound down, show us the work.
≥ when you have shown that at least this value is achievable.≤ when you have shown that anything above this value is impossible.No vibes. State the value, define the scope, and link the paper, proof, code, or reproduction that lets another person check it. Editors review every challenge before the public record changes.
