Background on Plant

Baise Tianyang power station is a two-unit coal-fired power plant with a total capacity of 300 MW. The 2*150MW units were completed in 2007, and is owned by Guangxi Baise Mining Group.

The power plant retreated from Guangxi Public Grid without any permit, joining Baise local grid instead, which is owned and run by Baise Power Power Co. This action led to the cancellation of its electricity business license and a ¥900,000($132,000) fine in August 2016 imposed by NEA Southern Energy Supervision Bureau.

The power company is continuing operating even without the license.
