Project-level coal details
Background
The six existing coal-fired units of Huainan Luohe power station, totaling 2,500 MW, were brought online between 1985 and 2010 in three phases. The plant is owned by China Datang.[8][9][10][11]
In 2010, two 600 MW units were upgraded to 630 MW each.[12] As of 2014, the configuration of the plant was as follows:[13][14]
- Unit 1 - 300 MW - operating 1985 (subcritical)
- Unit 2 - 300 MW - operating 1986 (subcritical)
- Unit 3 - 300 MW - operating 1998 (subcritical)
- Unit 4 - 300 MW - operating 1999 (subcritical)
- Unit 5 - 600 MW - operating 2007 (supercritical) - upgraded to 630 MW in 2010
- Unit 6 - 600 MW - operating 2007 (supercritical) - upgraded to 630 MW in 2010
On June 11, 2025， Huaihe Energy released the award announcement for the technical proposal and feasibility study report preparation services, as well as preliminary technical consulting and review services for the Luohe Power Plant Phase V (Unit 9 & Unit 10) 2×1000MW ultra-supercritical coal-fired power generation expansion project.[15]
On October 15, 2025, the left wall of the vertical section water-cooled wall for Unit 8 boiler at Luohe Power Station was successfully lifted into position.[16]
On October 28, 2025, the chimney structure of Huainan Luohe Power Plant Phase IV 2×1000MW coal-fired power project (Unit 7 & Unit 8) successfully topped out.[17]
Description of Phase IV Expansion
As of November 2012, Datang was planning to build an additional 1,000-MW coal-fired unit.[8] A feasibility study was carried out in 2011.[18][18][19][19][20]
However, there had been no news on the project since its 2011 feasibility study, and it appeared to be deferred or abandoned.
In August 2023, the Phase IV proposal was revived, now with 2 x 1,000 MW units. The announcement stated that when the Phase IV units were operational, the 2 x 320 MW Phase I would be retired.[21]
In November 2023, Phase IV was approved by the Provincial Development and Reform Commission.[22]
