Background
Ningdong Younglight power station is a two-unit coal-fired captive power plant with a total capacity of 660 MW in Ningxia Autonomous Region. The plant was completed in 2013, and was originally owned by China Guodian.[1][2][3]
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.[4][5] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[6]
