Background

Huaneng Beijing power station was a five-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 845 MW. The plant was completed in 1999, and owned by China Huaneng. It was on standby in 2014 to 2016.[8]

On March 18, 2017, unit 1 of the plant was officially retired. The remaining units remain on standby for the winter months, with no retirement date set.[9]

A 2,767 MW gas-fired power station Huaneng Beijing Thermal power station was commissioned in several stages from 1999, 2011, and 2017 to replace the coal-fired units. [10]
