Background on Project
In 2010, Huaneng reported that it was planning a 3,200 MW project in Yan'an in two phases, 1,200 MW in Phase I and 2,000 MW in Phase II.[10][11]
In 2015 it was reported the power station would consist of four units of 660 MW each.[12]
In 2015 a feasibility report was submitted for the first two units.[13] Units 1-2 were approved for construction in 2015,[14] and began construction in 2016.[15]
Units 1-2 suspended
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 Yan'an power station units 1-2. It is unclear when or if the projects will be revived.[16]
Construction on units 1-2 resumes
An announcement dated March 22, 2017, indicated that the company continued to recruit new employees for the project.[17]
In August 2017, it was reported that construction on units 1-2 of the plant was ongoing. China Huaneng claimed the project was in a revolutionary area,[18] which would be exempt under China's restrictions on new coal capacity.
Planet satellite images show limited construction from June 2017 through April 2018.
A groundbreaking ceremony was held in December 2018.[19] The two units are planned for commissioning in 2020.[20]
After one year of construction and 1.4 billion Yuan investment (of the total 4.9 billion Yuan budget), the project was once again stopped in 2020 for unknown reasons.[21]
In August 2022, bidding was once again opened for the 2 x 660 MW project.[22]
In November 2023, Unit 1 began operating.[23] In December 2023, Unit 2 was successfully connected to the grid and preparing to enter trial operation.[24]
Units 3-4
With no developments on Units 3-4 since August 2015, the Phase II project appeared to be cancelled as of 2022.
However, in May 2023, plans for the 2 x 1,000 MW expansion were revived.[25] In December 2023, the units were permitted by the Shaanxi Provincial Development and Reform Commission.[26]
