Background on Project

National Energy Investment Group and Shaanxi Coal & Chemical Industry Group proposed a 2 x 660 MW coal plant in Bin County, Xianyang Prefecture. It was described as a low-calorie ultra-supercritical CFB power generation demonstration project.[2]

In February 2018, a boiler purchase agreement was signed between the sponsors and Harbin Electric Group for the power station.[3]

Unit 1 was waiting for the permit for construction from Shaanxi Provincial Development and Reform Commission,[4] which was received in August 2019.[5]

Construction on Unit 1 reportedly began in March 2020.[6] Once again in March 2022, it was reported that construction of Unit 1 had begun,[7] although Planet satellite imagery of the site site did not appear to show any signs of construction.

A June 2022 news article announced that bidding was underway for the power project's EPC contracting.[8]
