Background on Project

In 2015 China Resources Holding was permitted to build a 2 x 660 MW coal-fired power station in the city of Xiantao.[3][4]

The project was planned for completion in 2017,[5][6] but construction did not begin until March 2019.[7]

Unit 1 was connected to the grid by the end of June 2022,[8] and began operating July 10, 2022.[9]

Unit was connected to the grid on October 22, 2022,[10] and was operating by November 2022.[11]

In December 2022, a 2 x 660 MW Phase II expansion was announced at Xiantao power station.[12] In October 2023, Environmental Impact Assessment information was made available.[13] In November 2023, Phase II was reportedly preparing to start construction.[14]
