Background
The two existing coal-fired units of Tongling Guodian-1, totaling 1,200 MW, were brought online in 2008. [3]The plant was originally owned by China Guodian.[4][5]
Description of Expansion
According to "Power Plants Around the World" and Platts, Guodian recently built Tongling Guodian-2, consisting of two additional coal-fired units, with a total capacity of 2,000 MW. These sources report that the new units were completed in 2011.[4] But Chinese sources report the second phase remains in the planning stage.[6] And satellite photography from late 2013 confirms that the second phase has not been built.
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.
2023: Project revived
In 2023, the project appeared revived.[7][8][9]
Ownership
On August 28, 2017, China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) announced that China Guodian Corporation and Shenhua Group will be jointly restructured. Shenhua Group will become China National Energy Investment Group and will absorb China Guodian Corporation. It will be the largest power company in the world by installed capacity, as well as the world's largest coal producer.[10][11] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[12]
