The coal-fired boilers at Uskmouth B were supplied by Babcock and Wilcox. They are radiant boilers with superheaters and economisers. They have a capacity of 860,000 lb of steam per hour at 1,900 psi.

The pulverised fuel mills were also supplied by Babcock and Wilcox. The coal feeders had been removed from units 13 and 14, but the mothballed unit 15 retained its feeders.
