Background

Yantai Wanhua Chlor-alkali cogen power station is a 2 x 50 MW coal plant in Fushan, sponsored by Wanhua Chemical Group.

As of March 2019, the units were under construction.

Some satellite imagery suggested units could have began operating around May 2020 and October 2021.

Comparing imagery from March 2022 and November 2023 seemed to show an increase from 7 units to 8. According to the Environmental Protection Acceptance Assessment Report, the two 50 MW units were expected to start operation after January 2023.
