Background

Neijiang Baima power station was a five-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 1,520 MW in Sichuan Province. Units 1-3, totaling 620 MW, were completed between 1988 and 1996, and have been retired. The units were owned by China Huadian and China Guodian. Shenhua Group's Unit 4, with a capacity of 300 MW, was completed in 2006. Shenhua Group's Unit 5, with a capacity of 600 MW, was completed in 2013. Units 4-5 are also known as units 21-22.[9]

A 950 MW gas-fired power plant is in the pre-construction stage and is expected to start operation in 2025.[10]

Proposed Expansion

China Huadian is planning a 2-unit Huadian Neijiang Baima Gas Power Station, totaling 950 MW of capacity with 475 MW each, on the land of retired coal power units. The source of the gas will come from Weiyuan fracking field, which is about 20 kilometers away from the station.[11]

Unit 1 was approved in December 2021 [12]and Unit 2 was approved in February 2022[13].

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.[14] 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.[15][16] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[17]
