Background on Project

In May 2020, a local government of Gansu Province proposed the Qingyang UHV Transmission power station, a 6 x 1,000 MW coal plant for Changqingqiao. The plant was expected to support a UHV transmission line from Gansu province to Jiangxi province. While the local government supported the project, it did not have a sponsor.[1][2]

Other projects (灵台电厂建设项目; 正宁电厂二期工程; 甘肃电投常乐电厂调峰火电项目(3、4号机组)) appeared to replace these 6 units,[3], so the power station was presumed cancelled by December 2022.
