This is a list of active power stations in Tasmania, Australia. Candidates for this list must already be commissioned and capable of generating 1-megawatt (1,300 hp) or more of electricity.

Gas

Thermal gas

These power stations use gas combustion to power steam turbines that generate some or all of the electricity they produce.

Tamar Valley 210 281,615 5 Natural gas Yes

Note that the above three power stations are in fact the same power station listed upon commissioning after conversion to gas and recommissioning after a turbine upgrade. It has been decommissioned since 2009.

Gas (reciprocating)

These power stations use gas combustion in reciprocating engines to generate some or all of the electricity they produce.
