Background on Project
Xinjiang Tianchi Energy Sources and China Datang have proposed a power station of four units of 660 MW for Changji city. The project feasibility report was submitted in 2013.[1][2]
The first two units are under construction.[3][4] Units 3-4 are permitted for construction.[5]
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, Shanxi, and Xinjiang.[6]
As of January 2017, the affected area includes this power station, which may be scaled down as a result.
For details, see China's 2016 Restrictions on Development of Coal-Fired Power Capacity.
Construction ongoing
Despite the scale control limits, construction continues to move forward for units 1-2,[7] and initial prep work for construction has begun on units 3-4.[8]
June 2019: Units 1-2 commissioned
Unit 1 was commissioned on June 24, 2019.[9] Unit 2 was commissioned on June 28, 2019.[10]
