The Al-Ki Bridge Power Station is a key infrastructure asset in Iraq's power generation grid, located on the continent of Asia. Designated as a fossil fuel electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 0 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing gas energy resources to generate bulk electricity. Operational management and ownership of the facility are handled by the Ministry of Electricity, which oversees daily maintenance and grid dispatch integration. The facility was officially connected to the commercial grid in 2014, since which it has maintained regular output, playing a structured role in domestic power supply security. In terms of domestic production capacity within Iraq, Al-Ki Bridge Power Station occupies the #49 position among all operational gas power plants. Its 0 MW capacity represents a 0.00% share of Iraq's total installed gas generating capacity, which currently stands at 40,564 MW. The largest operational gas installation in Iraq is the Basmaya Power Generation Station with an output of 5,000 MW, making the Al-Ki Bridge Power Station approximately 1.0 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0000% of Iraq's aggregate generation capacity of 58,413 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of gas power plants (modeled at 40% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 0 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Iraq consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 0 homes. By utilizing traditional thermal power processes, the station delivers reliable dispatchable energy to the grid, supporting grid resilience during periods of low renewable resource availability and satisfying industrial base-load demands. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates 30.7125° latitude and 47.3297° longitude. Analysis of local grid infrastructure shows a density of other assets within a 50-kilometer radius. These nearby facilities include Al-Rumaila North Electricity Generation Station (gas, 3,156 MW), Al-Hartha (oil, 800 MW), Al-Najybia (gas, 500 MW), representing a cluster of localized power assets. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Iraq.
