Background on Plant

In 2012 China Datang was planning a 400 MW coal-fired plant in Fuxin city.

However, by 2014 there had been no developments on the project, which was apparently abandoned. Instead, Datang began building a 4 billion cubic meter/year coal gasification plant in Fuxin, which the company has been trying to sell.

As of 2018 China Datang is still owner of the coal gasification plant, with 190 MW of coal-fired power supporting the gasification. 100 MW of that capacity is under construction.

Units 1-2 totaling 100 MW were commissioned in 2020.

As of June 2021 there have been no developments on units 4-5, which appear to be cancelled.
