Background
Zhunda power station is a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 600 MW. The plant was completed in 2006, and is owned by Inner Mongolia Asset Management Bureau.[4]
In 2022, based on tender bid numbers (e.g. HNZB2022-12-3-280), an additional 2 x 1,000 MW appeared under consideration at the site. The project reportedly started construction on March 18, 2023, and was scheduled to be put into operation by 2025.[5][6][7][8] Permitting details were unknown.
Construction of Phase II Unit 1 began in late 2023 with the first concrete pour and boiler steel hoisting.[9][10]
Throughout 2024 and 2025, the project progressed through major milestones, including turbine base, boiler, and cooling tower construction.[11][12] The main building and chimney structures were topped out in late 2024.[13] In 2025, the unit achieved first fire and a successful boiler water pressure test.[14]
Construction of Phase II Unit 2 progressed in 2024 and 2025, with the first boiler steel and cooling tower completed.[15][16] In 2026, the boiler water pressure test was completed.[17]
