Background on Plant

China Huadian has proposed a power station of two units of 1,000 MW each in Heze city. Construction is planned for 2016, with the first two units planned for operation in 2019.

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.

The project completed a feasibility study in April 2017, but due to the province's restrictions on new coal plants, is being developed slowy.
