Background
The first two coal-fired units of Fangchenggang Qisha power station, totaling 1,260 MW, were brought online between 2007 and 2008. The plant is owned by CLP Group.[2]
In 2014, CLP Group said it was planning to build two additional coal-fired units at this plant, with a total planned capacity of 1,320 MW.[2][3][4] The units are planned to be ultra-supercritical, and are planned for completion in 2016.[5]
Unit 3 came online in November 2016, and unit 4 in December 2016.[6]
Expansion
In March 2020, a 1,000MW coal-fired expansion at the power station was listed as a preliminary project in the Guangxi "Energy Network Infrastructure Plan 2020-2022" (《广西“能源网”基础设施建设大会战实施方案（2020-2022年）》).[7]
In June 2023, officials were still meeting about the proposed expansion.[8]
In December 2023, a government press conference noted that the project had completed site selection and was a priority coal power project for Guangxi[9].
In July 2024, a financial news report mentioned that a local branch of the People's Bank of China was guiding a bank to provide loans to support the project's construction[10]. No further solid news was found, and the project was shelved as of March 2025[11][12].
Coal supply
The power station receives its coal supply from a dedicated terminal, the CLPGX coal terminal. CLP Group has a long-term coal supply from Indonesia for the power station.[5]
