Background on Project

Liaocheng Xiangguang cogen power station is a proposed a 2 x 660 MW coal plant in Yanlou Town, Yanggu. It is a residential CHP project.[4]

Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity

In January 2017 China's National Energy Administration proposed the postponement for after 2020 of over 100 planned and under-construction coal power projects in 13 provinces, including Liaocheng Xiangguang cogen power station.[5]

For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.

Project permitted

The plant was permitted for construction by the Shandong Provincial Development and Reform Commission in May 2017,[6] and again in April 2019.[7]

In 2020 the project sponsor changed to Shandong Energy Group (51%), Xinfengxiang Group (39%), and Harbin Electric (10%). Construction was reported in April 2020.[8]

Unit 1 had shown no progress on satellite imagery from May 2022 to November 2023[9]. In May 2024, a building permit pre-announcement indicated the project was still ongoing[10]. In November 2024, a复工仪式 was held, but satellite imagery showed no progress since the first half of 2022, indicating the project had been shelved[11].

In 2025, construction tenders were issued in May and June[12][13], and the boiler heating surface was hoisted in October[14], followed by the main plant A column structure topping out later that month[15]. In December, a news report indicated the project was expected to be commissioned by October 2026[16].

In 2026, the chimney outer cylinder was capped in February[17], and the No.1 cooling tower was topped out in April[18]. Unit 2's cooling tower was completed in June[19], and the boiler hydraulic test for Unit 1 passed in July[20].
