China Energy Engineering Group's 660MW Unit at Shimen, Shaanxi Coal, Put into Operation

en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 22, Unit 1 of the Shimen 2×660MW Capacity Expansion and Upgrade Project, designed by China Energy Engineering Group's Northwest Electric Power Design Institute, constructed by Guangdong Power Engineering Company, and commissioned by South China Electric Power Test and Research Institute, officially commenced commercial operation after successfully completing a 168-hour full-load trial run.

Located in Xinguan Community, Shimen County, Changde City, Hunan Province, this project is listed in the National Key Project Database and is part of the third batch of national-level “Two key” (key national strategies and key security capabilities) projects. It is also a key project under Hunan Province's 14th Five-Year Energy Plan. The project features the construction of two 660MW high-efficiency ultra-supercritical double-reheat coal-fired generating units, paired with equipment for flue gas dust removal, desulfurization, denitrification, as well as dedicated railway lines and other supporting facilities.

Upon full operation, the project is expected to generate approximately 60 billion kWh of electricity annually, meeting the electricity needs of around 3 million households. This will enhance the security, stability, and reliability of the power grid in northwestern Hunan, effectively alleviate seasonal power shortages in the region, and provide a vital energy boost for Hunan's economic development.
