Background on Project

The Taizhou-1 power station originally comprised six 135 MW units, commissioned from 1980 to 1988. They were retired in 2009-2010. Four new units were built:

• Units 7 and 8 - 330 MW each - commissioned 1995 and 1996
• Units 9 and 10 - 300 MW each - commissioned 2007 and 2008
