Background on Project

Wanergy Group and Yaojie Coal Electricity Group have proposed a 2 x 350 MW coal plant in Haishiwan Town, Honggu, Lanzhou Prefecture.[3]

Yaojie Coal Electricity Group is in touch with Huaneng Lanzhou Xigu Cogen Power Co., Ltd to seek cooperation on this project in April 2021.[4]

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, including Yaojie power station. It is unclear when or if the projects will be revived.[5]

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

By 2022, the power station was still presumed to be under consideration even though there have been no real known developments related to the site.[6]

A site selection inspection was conducted for Unit 1 in February 2023[7], but no construction news emerged. In 2024, it was not on the provincial key projects list[8]. In February 2025, the project received approval to proceed with preliminary work[9], but no development info was found. In 2026, no news emerged[10].
