Background on Project

Guangdong Baolihua New Energy is planning to build a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total planned capacity of 2,000 MW in Guangdong Province.[4]

The plant received environmental clearance in May 2014,[5] and the permit for construction from China's NDRC in February 2015. It was scheduled to be completed in 2016.[6]

Construction began in July 2015.[7]

Project suspended by central government

In January 2017 China's National Energy Board directed the Guangdong Province to suspend or postpone nine coal projects in the province, including Lufeng Jiahuwan, due to excess coal capacity.[8]

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

2018: Construction continues

In January 2018 it was reported that construction was ongoing.[9] The units appear on a July 2018 central government list of units allowed to come online in 2018.[10]

Unit 1 was commissioned in November 2018.[11] Unit 2 was commissioned in April 2019.[12]

Expansion

On May 24, 2022, the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission announced the expansion project of units 3 and 4.[13]

The project was permitted on September 18, 2022.[14][15] Construction reportedly began in November 2022.[16]

Four more 1,000 MW units are proposed at the same site.[17][18]They were mentioned on a planned construction list in 2025 but were shelved in March 2025 due to a lack of news. No further updates were recorded in 2026.

In 2024, construction progressed on the 3rd and 4th units, with the 3rd unit's generator rotor installed in November.[19]

By early 2025, the project was 50% complete, but construction appeared to be on hold later that year.[20] An update in November 2025 indicated that land-based works were complete, while sea-use permits were still pending,[21]requiring an additional 17-18 months of construction time after approval[22]. No further news emerged in 2026[23].

Units 5-8 were shelved in March 2025[24].
