Background on Project

Beijing Energy Group is building a 2 x 350 MW supercritical coal plant in Shiqiao Village, Zhangwan District. The project was permitted in December 2014. It is planned for operation in 2017.[1][2]

July 2017: Plant postponed by government

In July 2017 China's National Energy Administration (NEA) released the "Guideline of Supply-Side Reform of the Coal Power Bubble". The Guideline included a draft list which slowed down or halted 185 coal-burning units across 21 provinces, totaling 107 GW. 114 coal units (65 GW) are ordered to slow down the construction progress during 2017 to 2020, and are not allowed to connect to the grid in 2017. In addition, 71 coal units (42 GW) were halted indefinitely for regulation violations. The list partly overlapped with the projects listed in the January NEA letter to 13 provinces.[3]

Shiyan Cogen power station Units 1-2 are among the postponed coal-burning units,[3] and also appeared on an updated list of postponed projects released in September 2017.[4]

2018: Construction continues

A November 2017 articles states that construction is ongoing at the power station, which is planned for operation in 2018.[5]

Unit 1 was commissioned in December 2018.[6]

Unit 2 was commissioned in March 2019.[7]
