Background

Jingneng Power proposed a supercritical coal-fired power station of 700 MW for the city of Zhuozhou.[5] It was under construction and planned to be completed in 2017.[6]

In July 2017, the NEA released the "Guideline of Supply-Side Reform of the Coal Power Bubble". The Guideline included a draft list which slowed down or halted 185 coal-burning units across 21 provinces, totaling 107 GW. 114 coal units (65 GW) are ordered to slow down the construction progress during 2017 to 2020, and are not allowed to connect to the grid in 2017. In addition, 71 coal units (42 GW) were halted indefinitely for regulation violations. The list partly overlapped with the projects listed in the January NEA letter to 13 provinces. Zhuozhou power station Units 1-2 were among the postponed coal-burning units.[7]

After political negotiations, China's National Energy Administration (NEA) released an updated list of postponed and halted coal projects on September 26, 2017. The new list contained 151 units totaling 95 gigawatts (GW). Zhuozhou power station unit 1 was no longer on the list, but unit 2 was, suggesting unit 1 is not posponed.[8] For more information, see China's 2016/2017 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.

Unit 1 was commissioned on November 11, 2017.[9]

Unit 2 appeared on a July 2018 central government list of coal-fired units allowed to come online in 2018.[10] It was commissioned on July 4, 2018.[11]

Proposed expansion

In February 2023, a 2 x 1,000 MW expansion was approved at Zhuozhou power station.[12]

In April 2023, Jingneng Electric Power made an announcement about investment in Units 3 and 4.[13]

In July 2023, preliminary design for the expansion project was underway. Construction was expected to take place from 2024 to 2026.[14]

The project held a construction ceremony in December 2023.[15]

In 2024, the project appeared on key project lists, but no ground movement was observed.

In 2025, major equipment and construction tenders were issued, and site preparation began.[16][17]

Tendering for major systems continued in 2026.[18]
