Background on Project
Since 2013 there has been plans for a 700 MW coal plant in Dongxihu District. Sponsor Shenhua Group is pursuing environmental clearance.[6][7]
In 2017 it was reported the plant would be gas-fired.[8]
The gas-fired project was shelved according to the company's announcement.[9]
Ownership
On August 28, 2017, China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) announced that China Guodian Corporation and Shenhua Group will be jointly restructured. Shenhua Group will become China National Energy Investment Group and will absorb China Guodian Corporation. It will be the largest power company in the world by installed capacity, as well as the world's largest coal producer.[10][11] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[12]
