Background on Project
In 2011, China Huaneng was planning to build a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total planned capacity of 2,000 MW in Shanxi Province.[2]
In 2014, it was announced the plant was scheduled to be completed in 2016.[3][4][5]
There were no further developments on the project from 2015 to 2019, likely due to the central government's traffic light policy introduced in 2016, which limited coal plant development in most provinces, including Shanxi. (For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.)
However, the traffic light policy was loosened in 2019. In February 2020, Shanxi was given the green light for coal plant development. The proposal was revived in March 2020, this time as a 4 x 1,000 MW coal plant. Units 1-2 would be built first.[6]
Two 1,000 MW units were on Shanxi's key project list for 2023.[7] In December 2022, news referenced the project as part of the "upgrading the large and suppressing the small" policy.[8]
With no known updates on the additional 2 x 1,000 MW proposed in the feasibility study, the additional capacity was presumed shelved by July 2023.
The first two units were approved by the end of July 2023 (晋发改审批发〔2023〕285号).[9][10][11]
