Background on Project
Inner Mongolia Jinshi Magnesium Company is seeking approval for a 2 x 350 MW captive power station for Wulanbuhe in Alxa Prefecture. [1][2][3]
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 with a total capacity of over 100GW in 13 provinces, including Jinshi Magnesium. It is unclear when or if the projects will be revived.[4]
For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.
Presumed cancelled
The project was active around 2014 and 2015, but as of January 2022, there were no known developments. The parent company's debt crisis may partly explain the lack of further news. The project was presumed cancelled.[5]
