Background

Hejin consists of two coal-fired power station phases. Hejin-1 is a 2x350 MW plant commissioned in 2000. Hejin-2 is a 2x300 MW plant commissioned in 2005. They are owned by Datong Coal Mining Group.[4]

In June 2021, an additional 2,000 expansion (Hejin-3) was referenced.[5]

After no significant news for several years, the project was revived in 2026 with a new feasibility study and technical consulting services for the 2×1000MW project[6]. The project is now under development as the China Coal Hejin Integrated Energy Base project[7], with the feasibility study awarded in June 2026[8].
