Background on Project
Beijing Ruixing Asset Management has proposed a 2 x 1,000 MW coal plant in Luanjiakou Harbor, Penglai.[1]
Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity
In January 2017 China's National Energy Administration proposed the suspension through 2020 of over 100 planned and under-construction coal power projects in 13 provinces, including Zhongxing Penglai.[2]
For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.
April 2017: Project permitted
The project was permitted for construction by the Shandong Province in April 2017. The permit document states the project is an "energy efficiency demonstration project",[3] making it exempt from central government restrictions on new coal plants in "red light" provinces, which includes Shandong.
In September 2017 a signing ceremony was held for the equipment supply.[4]
The EIA was approved by the Shandong EPA on December 28, 2017.[5]
Construction began in September 2018.[6]
With no apparent progress on construction since June 2020, the project was presumed shelved.
However, by fall 2022, the project was mentioned in Yantai's 14th Five-Year-Plan, noting construction would take places from 2018 to 2024.[7]
