Background on Project
The draft EIA for the plant was released in June 2021. According to the updated project schedule, the power plant was scheduled to start construction in July 2021. Unit No. 1 was planned to be put into operation in July 2023, and Unit No. 2 in December 2023.[7]
Construction reportedly began in April 2022.[8] In August 2022, a news article reported that the project had again begun construction.[9]
However, with no known permit documents or evidence of construction, the units are presumed still under pre-permit development.
According to a 2023 list of key construction projects in Guangxi, the power project had indeed begun construction in August 2022.[10] The power station was estimated to begin operation in 2025.[10]
A second phase of the power plant (2 x 660 MW units) was reportedly announced in 2023.[10]
Unit 1 saw the boiler heating surface welded on October 18, 2023[11], the sixth layer of steel structure passed inspection on December 7[12], and the boiler beam was hoisted on December 19[13]. In 2024, the main plant steel roof truss and deaerator were hoisted in January[14][15], the main plant was enclosed and the cooling tower was topped out in March[16], the generator stator was hoisted in July[17], and the turbine was covered in November[18].
In 2025, the unit was connected to the grid on March 13[19] and passed the 168-hour trial on April 24[20].
Unit 2 saw boiler steel frame hoisting begin on August 21, 2023[21]. In 2024, the boiler beam was hoisted in February[22], the cooling tower was completed in July[23], the turbine stator and main transformer were installed in September–October[24][25], the boiler hydraulic test passed in October[26], and the plant power system received power in November[27].
In 2025, the turbine cover was completed in January[28], flushing was completed in April[29], the unit was connected to the grid in May[30], and it passed the 168-hour trial in June[31].
Phase II (units 3 and 4) received an EIA approval in August 2024 and land pre‑approval in December 2024.[32] By 2025, the project was not on the provincial key projects list. Construction had not started by late 2025 and was shelved by mid-2026[33].
