Location
The map below shows the plant, which is located in Yingjiang District, Anqing Prefecture, Anhui Province.
Background on Plant
The first two coal-fired units of Anqing power station, totaling 640 MW, were brought online in 2005. The plant is owned by Shenhua Group (which later became National Energy Investment Group) and Wenergy Group.[1][2][3]
Description of Expansion
The plant's owners are currently building two additional coal-fired units at this plant, with a total planned capacity of 2,000 MW.[4] The new units were scheduled to be completed in 2014-15, and construction began in November 2012.[5][6][7] In June 2013, however, the owners were ordered to suspend construction when it was discovered that they had failed to obtain the necessary permission from the Environmental Protection Bureau prior to beginning construction.[8]
In February 2014, ABB announced that it had been contracted to supply "Symphony Plus total plant automation systems" for the new units, seemingly indicating that Shenhua is still pursuing the project.[9] In December 2014 Shenhua Group said it recently obtained approval from Anhui Province for construction of the expansion.[10]
The new units were reported as in operation in June 2015.[11][12]
Ownership
On August 28 2017, China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) announced that China Guodian Corporation and Shenhua Group will be jointly restructured. Shenhua Group will become China National Energy Investment Group and will absorb China Guodian Corporation. It will be the largest power company in the world by installed capacity, as well as the world's largest coal producer.[13][14] The merger was completed on November 28, 2017.[15]
