Background

Kangbashi power station is a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 700 MW in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The plant was completed in 2013-14, and is owned by Beijing Energy Investment Holding.[1]

Expansion

Beijing Energy Investment Holding is seeking permitting for an additional 2 x 350 MW at the power station.[2]

2016: Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity

Due to new restrictions announced during 2016 by the National Energy Administration and the National Development and Reform Commission, further capacity expansions at this location appear to be on hold or cancelled. For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.

With no developments since 2016, the project appears to be cancelled.
