Background
The power plant was founded in 1965. The first 2 units with 12 MW each were commissioned in 1969, and retired in 2004. [3] Two other units of Gangu power station (Phase II) consisted of a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 660 MW. The plant was completed in 2007, and owned by Datang.[4][5]
In June 2019 it was reported the plant had not been operating for two years, due to the bankruptcy of Gansu Power Generation Co., Ltd.[6]
The power station changed ownership and was restructured. Thanks to the renewable base construction in the province, the plant was expected to serve as peaking units. In March 2022, a "resumption ceremony" was reportedly held.[7]
However, in June 2022, a rehabilitation or construction process still appeared underway.[8]
By December 2022, the plant was operating again.[9]
Ownership
In May 2020, State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) began a pilot project which is allowing each of the five Central SOEs, central government-owned power giants presenting only in one province or autonomous region in 5 northwest provinces and autonomous regions. It is an effort by SASAC to improve the financial performance of the coal power companies in these 5 provinces and Autonomous regions. According to SASAC's arrangement, China Huaneng presents in Gansu. China Huadian leads Xinjiang. China Datang is in Shaanxi except those power companies belonging to China Energy Group. SPIC is in Qinghai. China Energy Group leads Ningxia. By the end of 2020, 10 coal power stations in Gansu have completed the transition. [10][11]
This power plant completed the ownership transition to China Huaneng in March 2021.[12]
