Background on Project

Guangdong Yudean Group is currently building a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total planned capacity of 1,200 MW in Guangdong Province.[1][2][3][4][5]

Unit 1 was completed in 2015,[6] and Unit 2 in June 2016.[7]

Expansion

In May 2020, plans were announced for a 2 x 1,000 MW expansion at the plant. Construction was planned for 2021.[8] The expansion was listed in the Guangdong Major Development Projects of 2020 as a Major Preliminary Project.[9]

The two units were permitted on August 25, 2022.[10] In November 2022, construction reportedly began.[11]
