Tušimice Power Station (Czech: Elektrárna Tušimice) is a lignite-fired power station in Tušimice, part of the town Kadaň in the Ústí nad Labem Region of the Czech Republic. It is owned and operated by ČEZ Group.

The first power station in Tušimice (Tušimice I) was commissioned in 1963–1964. The current power station (Tušimice II) was commissioned in 1973–1974. The power station consists of four generation units with a capacity of 200 MW each. Its turbines and generators are produced by Škoda, and steam boilers are produced by Vítkovické železárny. Tušimice II has a 300-metre (980 ft) flue-gas stack built in 1974.

The power station is supplied by lignite from the local Nástup–Tušimice Mines.
