The first three units of the 4X135 MW plant have been commissioned, with the final unit 4 completed in April 2011.[1] The company states that coal will be sourced from "western coal fields". The plant is being built for KSK Energy Ventures by Shangdong Electric Power Construction Corporation (SEPCO).[2]
