Background

Harbin-3 power station is a four-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 1,640 MW. The plant was completed between 1986 and 1999, and is owned by Huadian.[6] The four units of the power plant upgraded to co-generation, and began to supply heat in winter to the residential households since 2014.[7] In 2019, when unit 1 and 2 reached the age of retirement, they were granted 10-year life extension till 2029.[8]

Unit 5, which is the 660MW "developing large units and closing down small ones" cogeneration project received approval in June 2024[9]. Through 2025-2026, the project advanced with major equipment tenders[10], construction commencement[11], and boiler installation[12]. Unit 5 construction progressed with the chimney topping out in June 2026[13].

Expansion: Units 6 & 7

Feasibility study and technical consulting services for the 2×660MW project were initiated in April 2026, indicating preliminary development for additional units[14][15].
