Background

The power station is located by the Wudi Zhongcheng Xinyue Cogen power station (无棣众诚供热鑫岳热电) and Wudi Zhongcheng Lubei Cogen power station (无棣众诚供热鲁北热电).

In 2019, a document related to a "technical transformation" to make space for a 1×60MW + 1×30MW "Back Pressure Unit" was put out. The renovation project referenced dismantling a 125 MW and 40 MW steam turbine generator set.[5] In 2020, power station units were among the list of upgrade units passing inspection.[6]In 2020, an environmental assessment document referenced 1B30MW + 1B30MW + 1B60MW "steam turbine generator sets" (two open and one standby), and the other new units were not featured. This was presumed to mean the 2017 units were retired or replaced.[7]

In 2019, it was reported that many of the coal-fired power generating units in the Shandong Province with less than 300 MW of capacity would be shut down "in about three years."[8] However, this station appeared to not be in the exempt list because it has more than one replaceable domestic heating units. According to the Environmental Assessment Report, Unit 2, with 40MW, and Unit 5, with 125MW, were retired in 2019.[5]
