Background

The two existing coal-fired units of Huaibei Guo'an power station, totaling 640 MW, began construction in 1997 and were brought online in 2000. The plant cost US$333 million and is owned by Wenergy and SDIC.[6][7][8][9][10] In May 2025, the EPC general contracting for the denitrification and dust ultra-clean emission retrofit of the 2×320MW units was awarded[11].

Description of Expansion

In 2012, the plant's owners announced plans to build two additional coal-fired units at this plant, with a total capacity of 2,000 MW.[7][12]

There were no further developments on the plan until March 2020, when the project was listed as a priority project for Anhui province, as part of a UHV power hub in the Yangtze River Delta.[13]

In August 2022, a 2 × 660 MW project was put out for public comment,[14] and permitted by September 16, 2022.[15]

In February 2023, China Energy Construction won the EPC bid for the project.[16] In December 2023, the project successfully signed the construction agreement[17].

In January 2024, the main construction tender was issued[18]. In February 2024, the desulfurization system EPC tender was issued[19]. On April 28, 2024, the first concrete pour ceremony for Phase II Unit 3 was held[20][21]. In August 2024, the #3 boiler steel structure erection commenced[22]. In September 2024, the railway siding project application was publicly noticed for approval[23].

In February 2025, the EIA for the railway was accepted for public notice[24]. In July 2025, the Unit 3 generator stator was installed[25].

In April 2026, the railway siding project passed preliminary acceptance inspection[26]. In June 2026, Unit 3 achieved first grid connection[27]. In July 2026, Unit 3 completed the 168-hour trial run and was commissioned[28].

In April 2024, excavation for the #2 cooling tower began[29]. In June 2024, the Phase II Unit 4 turbine generator foundation concrete pour was completed[30]. In October 2024, the #4 cooling tower ring beam was poured[31]. In November 2024, the #2 boiler's first beam was installed[32].

In April 2025, the #4 cooling tower structure was completed[33]. In May 2025, the #4 high-pressure heater was installed[34]. In June 2025, the Unit 4 plant power system was successfully energized[35]. In July 2025, the Unit 4 medium-pressure cylinder was installed[36]. In August 2025, the Unit 4 pre-furnace alkaline washing was completed[37]. In October and November 2025, Unit 2 achieved boiler dynamic field testing, acid washing, and first ignition[38][39][40].

In June 2026, Unit 4 completed the 168-hour trial run and was commissioned[41].

Phase III: Units 5 & 6

In August 2025, the feasibility study service procurement notice was issued for the capacity replacement expansion 2×660MW ultra-supercritical unit project[42]. In October 2025, the feasibility study report review meeting was held in Huaibei[43]. No further development news has been reported as of May 2026[44].

Ownership

In May 2019, plant sponsor SDIC said it no longer planned to invest in new thermal power.[45] In December 2019, ChinaCoal bought SDIC's share in the coal plant.[46]
