Background

Zunyi power station was founded in 1958. After 4 phases of development, the maximum capacity reached 500MW.[1] The last two units were completed between 1991 and 1992, and retired in 2009. They were owned by China Huadian.[2][3] The plant was retired in 2010. [4]

Its retirement, plus the retirement of 3 other power plants, Shuicheng power station, Qingzhen power station and Toubu power station, made available capacity for Tangzhai power station, a 2*600MW power plant, under the policy of "shutting down small units to build big ones". [5]
