The is a coal-fired thermal power station operated by the Sà Âma Kyà Âdà  Power Co., Ltd. in the city of Sà Âma, Fukushima, Japan. The facility is located on the Pacific coast of Honshu. The Sà Âma Kyà Âdà  Power Co., Ltd is a 50-50 joint venture between Tohoku Electric and JERA.
Unit 1 of the Shinchi Thermal Power Station started operations in July 1994, followed by Unit 2 in July 1995. Each unit uses a super critical steam turbine with a rated output of 1000 MW, with imported coal as the primary fuel source, and with heavy oil and light oil usable as auxiliary sources of fuel. Biomass (wood pellets) were introduced from March 2015 to address the environmental issue of carbon emissions. The main smoke stack of the plant has a height of 200 meters, and can be seen from as far away as the city of Sendai in clear weather.
Operations were temporarily suspended due to damage caused by the TÃ Âhoku earthquake and tsunami in March 2011, but test operations were resumed in December 2011.
The area surrounding the power plant is being developed as an industrial park.
