- Permit(s): January 2005, November 18, 2015 – 2023-06-29, 闽发改网审能源函〔2023〕73号, permit amended for unit 5&6. , November 18, 2015
Background
The four existing coal-fired units of Fuzhou Kemen power station, totaling 2,400 MW. In January 2005, China National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) granted permission (发改能源〔2005〕791号) to build phase one Kemen coal-fired power plant with two supercritical units. Two units in phase I went online in 2006, followed by phase II two units in 2008.[1][2]
Description of Expansion
Huadian proposed to build two additional coal-fired units at this plant, with a total planned capacity of 2,000 MW. The new units were scheduled to be completed in 2016.[3][4][1]
The proposed units were permitted in 2015. They were planned for commissioning in 2018.[5]
2017: Expansion postponed by government
In July 2017, the NEA released the "Guideline of Supply-Side Reform of the Coal Power Bubble". The Guideline included a draft list which slowed down or halted 185 coal-burning units across 21 provinces, totaling 107 GW. 114 coal units (65 GW) are ordered to slow down the construction progress during 2017 to 2020, and are not allowed to connect to the grid in 2017. In addition, 71 coal units (42 GW) were halted indefinitely for regulation violations. The list partly overlapped with the projects listed in the January NEA letter to 13 provinces.[6]
Fuzhou Kemen power station Units 5-6 are among the postponed coal-burning units,[6] and also appeared on an updated list of postponements released in September 2017.[7]
For more information, see China's 2016/2017 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.
Plans revived
With no updates in years, the units were presumed cancelled.
However, in 2022, the expansion was listed in the province's 14th Five-Year-Plan for energy and considered revived.[8] In December 2022, the China Electricity Council reported that construction of the project had resumed.[9] In January 2023, it was reported that construction of Phase III was being accelerated in the first quarter of 2023.[10] By May 2023, bidding for the project's two chimneys was underway.[11] Biddings for further EPC tenders were ongoing in July 2023.[12][13]
