Project-level coal details
- Permit(s): June 10, 2008, October 10, 2017
Background on Project
The 600 MW waste coal-fired power station began construction in 2008 and operation in 2010.[1] The power station is near the Suancigou mine in Majiata Gawler rural village, Zhunge'er (Jungar) Banner. The mine began operating in 2008.[2]
Proposed expansion
In 2011 project sponsor Beijing Energy Investment Holding said it planned to add two units to the power station, units 3-4, of 660 MW each.[3]
A feasibility study was released in 2014.[4] The company Dongfang has been contracted to supply the turbines.[5]
The power station was permitted in October 2017. The document of the permit says the project will support the power transmission line from West Inner Mongolia to Tianjin.[6]
Since the permit is to export power outside the region,[6] the project may be exempt from restrictions on new coal plants in "red light" areas, which includes Inner Mongolia. (The restrictions and exemptions were announced in 2016-2017 by the National Energy Administration and the National Development and Reform Commission. For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.)
Construction on units 3-4 began in October 2017.[7]
