Background

Nanpu Quanzhou power station is a four-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 1,940 MW in Fujian Province. The first two units, totaling 600 MW, were completed between 2005 and 2006. Units 3 and 4, totaling 1,340 MW, were completed in 2011 &2012, but did not receive permit from NDRC until 2014.[6][7] The plant was originally owned by China Guodian.[8]

In March 2023, a 2 x 660 MW Phase III was announced at Nanpu Quanzhou power station.[9]

In December 2023, Environmental Impact Assessment procedures for Phase III were underway.[10]

The project received approval in late 2023 and was listed on key provincial project lists in 2024.[11][12]

Throughout 2024 and 2025, it progressed through tendering and investment decision milestones.[13][14]

Major equipment contracts were signed in early 2026, and in June 2026, the main construction contractor was announced.[15][16]

Ownership

On August 28, 2017, China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) announced that China Guodian Corporation and Shenhua Group will be jointly restructured. Shenhua Group will become China National Energy Investment Group and will absorb China Guodian Corporation. It will be the largest power company in the world by installed capacity, as well as the world's largest coal producer.[17][18] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[19]
