Background on Project

Shandong Province Prison Administration was permitted to build a 2 x 600 MW coal plant in Taiping Town, Zoucheng. It would be a coal gasification project.[1]

Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity

In January 2017 China's National Energy Administration suspended over 100 planned and under-construction coal power projects in 13 provinces, including Shandong Luxi power station. It was unclear when or if the projects would be revived.[2]

For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.

2019: Construction begins

Construction began in January 2019. Sponsorship also changed to Yanzhou Coal Mining of the Yankuang Group.[3]

2022: Operation

Unit 1 began operating in November 2022.[4][5]

Unit 2 began operating in April 2023.[6]
