an abandoned power plant turbine hall in China

Built in 1958, this small power plant was later on combined into and became the famous Shanghai Chongming Electric Company. The original plant had 3 stem turbine generators and 2 diesel generators, and in 1971 it was expanded to the current scale.

 

Due to the growing needs of clean power and technology developments in China, the plant was closed in 2018. For these 6 steam turbines in the main hall (13, 14 A and B, 15 A and B, 16), they were shut down in December 2010.

 

(10 and 12 are in an older hall in a separate building, however I have no idea where 1-9 is located, might be dismantled).
