Background
The first two coal-fired units of the Guangdong Huilai power station, totaling 1,200 MW, were brought online in 2007. The plant was owned by Guangdong Yudean Group.[6]
The power station's units 3 and 4 (1,000 MW each) were completed in 2013, expanding the power station from 1,200 MW to 3,200 MW.[7][8][9][10]
On October 11, 2022, two more units, Units 5 and 6 (1,000 MW each), were permitted.[11]
In August 2023, the 2 x 1,000 MW Phase III expansion entered construction.[12]
In 2024, Unit 6 main plant topping out occurred in October. In January 2025, the main plant roof was completed. In May 2025, Unit 5 boiler hydrostatic test succeeded. In June 2025, the plant power system was energized. Unit 5 achieved grid connection in December 2025 and completed its 168-hour trial run in January 2026[13].
In February 2025, Unit 6 deaerator placement and generator stator placement occurred. In June 2025, plant power energization succeeded. In August 2025, turbine low-pressure cylinder placement occurred. Unit 6 completed its 168-hour trial run in February 2026[14].
