Background
Huadian Wangting power station began as a six-unit coal-fired power plant in Jiangsu Province. As shown in Google Earth's "time machine" feature, two units (Units 1-2) were demolished between 2007 and 2009. Units 3-4, totaling 660 MW, were completed between 1989 and 1996. Units 5-6, totaling 1,320 MW, were completed in 2009-2010. The plant is owned by China Huadian.[10]
The generation license for unit 3 (330 MW) was cancelled in October 2019, forcing the unit into retirement.[11] Reporting suggested that Unit 4 (330 MW, also referred to as Unit 11) was retired in 2020 but later provincial Development and Reform Commission (DRC) document showed the unit was still operating as of 2023.[12][13]
The natural gas power plant at the same location consists of two phases. 780 MW of the first phase started operation in 2005. 970 MW of the second phase was expected to start operation in 2023.
In January 2023, the Jiangsu provincial DRC was also considering an additional 2 x 660 MW coal-fired power expansion.[14] Though previously thought to be retired, January 2023 reporting indicated that the 330 MW Unit 4 (Unit 11) would be retired when the new coal-fired units were brought online.[12]
In April 2023, a bidding announcement for the compilation of the Feasibility Study Report was released,[15] with China Energy Construction securing the bid.[16]
As of May 2023, construction of the new units was expected to begin in 2024 and conclude in 2026.[17]
On June 30, 2023, the 2 x 660 MW expansion was approved by the Jiangsu Provincial Development and Reform Commission (苏发改能源发〔2023〕718号, portal update timestamp: 2023/07/12).[18]
In order to support the national "West-East Gas Transmission" project, Unit 1-1 and Unit 1-2 were completed in 2005.[19]
Unit 2-1 and Unit 2-2 were separately approved and granted permission by the Jiangsu Provincial Development and Reform Commission on December 26, 2019, and March 16, 2022. [20][21]On May 31, 2023, the project officially entered the construction phase.[22]
