Marsden A was a 250 MW oil-fired power station near the Marsden Point Oil Refinery at Marsden Point Ruakaka Northland New Zealand. It was built in the 1960s and acted as an emergency reserve power station serving the load centre of Auckland to the south. It was cooled through a long seawater pipe out into Bream Bay which is now used to supply an aquaculture industry nearby.
