Background

Anhui Hwasu power station is a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 600 MW in Anhui Province. The plant was completed in 2012, though it only received its EIA clearance and DRC permit in 2015.[1]

It was built as a captive CHP power plant to supply power and heat to the first phase of Anhui Hwasu's PVC project, which went into operation in 2013.[2][3]

Proposed expansion

The second phase of Anhui Hwasu's PVC project would include an additional three coal-burning units of 300MW each. The units were reportedly starting construction in November 2016,[4] however no other evidence can be found.

As of December 2019 there has been no progress on the units, and they appear to be abandoned.

Company ownership

Anhui Hwasu is a chemical company, owned by Huaibei Coal Mining Group and 4 other companies.[4]
