Background on Plant

Shenhua Shengli power station is a proposed two-unit, 1320 MW coal-fired power plant in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The plant is sponsored by Shenhua Group and partners.

The power station received environmental clearance in 2015. It is planned for operation in 2017, although Planet satellite photos from April 2018 suggest construction is still ongoing.

Nationwide Restrictions Imposed on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity

In 2016 China's National Energy Administration issued "scale control" (coal-fired capacity limits) on particular "sending out" locations that feed ultra-high voltage (UHV) long-distance power lines, including Inner Mongolia (Xilingong), Inner Mongolia (Ordos), Shaanxi, Ningxia, and Xinjiang.

As of January 2017, the affected area includes this power station, which may be scaled down as a result.
