Background

Tianshenggan power station is a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 660 MW. Units 1-11 were retired by 2009.[1] Units 12 & 13 were completed in 2005. The plant was originally owned by China Guodian.[2]

Ownership

On August 28, 2017, China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) announced that China Guodian Corporation and Shenhua Group will be jointly restructured. Shenhua Group will become China National Energy Investment Group and will absorb China Guodian Corporation. It will be the largest power company in the world by installed capacity, as well as the world's largest coal producer.[3][4] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[5]
