Opened in early 1990s, this power station was built to supply Hong Kong's international airport and the rest of Lantau in case the underwater power cables severed. It can be coal or natural gas fired, and is used as a backup generator only when required.

Designers of the Disneyland theme park tried their best to hide the power station from its visitors, by orienting the park away from the power station.
