Background on Project

In 2014, [[Shenhua Group] was planning to build a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 2,000 MW in Hunan Province.[1]

However, with no developments since 2014, plans appeared to be cancelled.

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.[2][3] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[4]
