Tjeldbergodden Reserve Power Station is a natural gas-fired thermal power plant located at the industrial site Tjeldbergodden in Aure, Norway and operated by Statnett. The station has installed one gas turbine with 150 MW effect. The power station was installed in 2006, but by the end of the winter of 2007 it still had not been in use.
The power station is only to be operated when there is acute need for extra effect, to hinder having to ration electricity. Statnett must receive permission from the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate every time the station is to be used. Due to the mobility of the power station, its emissions of carbon dioxide exceed that of a coal powered station.
