Background on Plant

Datang Baoding cogen power station was founded in 1958. The first two units were commissioned in 1960 and units 6-7 in 1988. All seven units were retired between 2007 and 2008. It is owned by China Datang.

Unit 8 and 9 were built in 2003. They are also called Baoding Huayuan Power Company. Units 10 and 11 were completed in 2008. The four units, units 8-11, are all co-generating, supplying heat in the winter to the city of Baoding.

Units 8 and 9 were retired in 2018, due to the bankruptcy of Baoding Huayuan Power Company after it failed to pay out billions of yuan in debt.

Proposed expansion

China Datang has proposed expanding the power station by 2 x 350 MW units. One of the units (Unit 12) was permitted for construction by China's NRDC in December 2016, before its EIA was approved by the provincial environmental protection agency. China Datang is planning to retire units 8 and 9 with total capacity of 250MW when the new unit is commissioned.

Unit 13 was permitted for construction on May 31, 2019.
