Background on Project
China Resources proposed a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total planned capacity of 700 MW in Hubei Province. The plant went online in 2014.[4]
Phase II Unit 3 was approved in March 2023[5] and a project management tender was issued in November[6]. In 2024, construction began in September[7], and various tenders were issued[8]. Significant construction progress was observed in satellite imagery through 2025[9].
In July 2026, the unit passed the 168-hour trial[10].
