Background

Puqi Xianning power station is a four-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 2,660 MW in Hubei Province. The first two units, totaling 660 MW, were completed in 2004. Units 3 & 4, totaling 2,000 MW, were completed in 2012-13. The plant is owned by China Resources.[9]

One 1,000 MW was listed in the province's 14th Five-Year-Plan in early 2022.[10] However, based on February 2022 reporting, two 1,000 MW units were actually under consideration (Phase III).[11]

In February 2022, it was reported that the third phase (2 x 1,000 MW units) of the power project had broken ground[12] and the first pot of concrete was poured into the foundation on 31 May 2023[13][14].

In June 2023, bidding was underway for EPC and equipments for the two new ultra-supercritical units.[15][16][17]

In July 2023, further reports of the project's biddings announced that Hunan Industrial Equipment Installation Company was the winning bidder for the main installation.[18][19]

On 3 September 2025, the first unit of Phase III, Unit 5, started commercial operation[20].

Construction of Unit 6 progressed in 2024 and 2025 with the boiler girder, cooling tower, and major equipment installations.[21][22] The unit passed its 168-hour trial run in November 2025.[23]
