Background
The four coal-fired units of China Huadian's Zibo power station, totaling 950 MW, were brought online between 2003 and 2013. The first two units were 89 MW and retired in 2014. Units 3 and 4 (145 MW each) went into operation in 2003,[4] and units 5 and 6 (330 MW each) in 2012-2013.[5][6]
Description of Expansion
According to Platts, Huadian is planning to build two additional coal-fired units at this plant, with a total capacity of 1,320 MW. The new units were scheduled to be completed in 2015.[7]
However, as of 2016 there are no other reports on this proposal, and plans appear to be deferred or abandoned.
In 2024, Phase III Units 7 and 8 was announced with several scheduled key milestones: a feasibility study review on December 4, 2024[8], and an environmental impact assessment public announcement on March 5, 2025[9]. The project, which involves constructing two 350MW coal-fired thermal power units using advanced technologies, received permission to build in April 2025[10]. Subsequent activities include bidding for design service and the three main equipment, with results were announced for design service on August 8, 2025[11] and the three main equipment on September 3, 2025[12].
