CHP stands for Combined Heat & Power. Not only do the three turbines seen here produce electricity but they also provide heat to convert liquefied natural gas (LNG) into a more usable form at the National Grid's nearby LNG terminal. The CHP plant, opened in 2010, stands near the former oil-fired Grain Power Station which is in the process of being dismantled.
