Background on Project

Xuzhou Coal Mining Co. is currently planning to build a coal-fired power plant with a total planned capacity of 1,320 MW in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.[2][3][4] It is planned for operation in 2017.[5]

The plant was permitted in March 2016.[6]

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 with a total capacity of over 100GW in 13 provinces, including Xinjiang Kuche Ehuobulake. It is unclear when or if the projects will be revived.[7]

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

As of March 2019, the power station was still described as "suspended".[8] The proposal was presumed to be cancelled.
