Background on Project

The original Huaneng Jining Gaoxin power station was a 2 x 30 MW coal plant owned by China Huaneng that began operating in 2004. It is located in Sunshidian Village.[1]

Units 1 and 2 were retired in early 2023.[2]

New units

China Huaneng has proposed a 2 x 350 MW coal plant in the Technology Development District of Jining Prefecture. It is planned for operation in 2017. Unit 3 was permitted for construction in August 2015,[3][4] and unit 4 in January 2017.[5]

Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity

In January 2017 China's National Energy Administration suspended over 100 planned and under-construction coal power projects in 13 provinces, including unit 4 of the Huaneng Jining Gaoxin power station. It is unclear when or if the projects will be revived.[6]

For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.

2018: Construction begins

Construction began on units 3-4 in December 2018. The plant is planned for operation in 2020.[7]

2021: Units commissioned

The new units were commissioned in November 2021.[8]
