Background

The plant's two units are 135 MW each and began operating in 2006. The plant is in Turpan prefecture and majority-owned by China Huadian.[1]

The two units were retired in October 2019.[2]

Expansion

In 2014 China Huadian's Xinjiang Huadian Power Generation Company signed a framework agreement with the Turpan Prefecture Government to build an additional two units of 350 MW each at the plant.[3] The feasibility study has been completed.[4]

2016: Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity

Due to new restrictions announced during 2016 by the National Energy Administration and the National Development and Reform Commission, further capacity expansions at this location appear to be on hold or cancelled. For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.
