Bank of China has committed to no longer provide financing for new coal mining and coal-fired power projects overseas, starting from the fourth quarter of this year, except for the projects whose contracts the bank has already signed.

Some of China's standards are even more stringent than Europe including emissions from coal-fired power plants, limits on sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, as well as sewage discharge.

In addition, construction of infrastructure facilities, including gas storage tanks and import terminals, has been improving in recent years, thanks to the coal-to-gas switching policy directives to curb air pollution, and large-scale replacement of coal-fired heating with gas-fired boilers in domestic households, which will further ensure gas supply, she said.

China Energy Investment Corp, or China Energy, announced earlier this month that the No 2 unit of its coal-fired power generation project, involving two 1,050 MW units in Java, Indonesia, passed a 168-hour test run smoothly late last month.

The project is the largest overseas coal-fired plant built by a Chinese company in terms of the installed capacity with China's intellectual property.

It is expected to save 279,000 metric tons of standard coal equivalent and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 571,000 tons per year compared with conventional coal-fired thermal power plants with the same generating capacity, it said.

With the No 1 unit of the 2x600 megawatt Hai Duong coal-fired power plant project officially commissioned in Vietnam late last month, local employees of centrally administered State-owned China Energy Engineering Group Co Ltd, or Energy China, are satisfied that all the long hot days of hard work were worth it.

Relying on his Chinese language skills and expertise, Nguyen Van Binh－who joined Energy China in 2017－applied to the management team at Hai Duong Coal-Fired Power Plant in 2019 when he heard that Hoa Hoi Phu Yen photovoltaic power station, another big-ticket project also constructed by Energy China, needed technicians.

The Three Gorges Reservoir in Central China's Hubei province has also raised its discharge volume to ensure water and power supply as the outbreak has affected coal reserves and coal-fired power generation in the province.

Its average price is far superior to gas, although it is not as cheap as coal-fired power or heat cogeneration units, Liu said.

Besides, it can be constructed near the sea or on land, making it a good fit for China's northern areas, as the nation attaches great importance to environmental protection, and is seeking clean energy to replace coal-fired heating that aggravates air pollution in North China, Liu said.

In 2014, the company's Zhoushan Power Plant became the world's first ultra-low emission coal-fired power unit.

Energy China's thermal plant in Vietnam marks latest milestone in overseas successEnergy firm China Energy Engineering Corporation Limited, which is simply known as Energy China, has joined forces with China Southern Power Grid to build a $1.75 billion coal-fired power plant in southern Vietnam.

According to Energy China, its domestic achievements include the construction of the Three Gorges Project, the largest hydropower station in the world in terms of installed capacity, the AC and DC transmission lines with the highest voltage level, and the largest number of 1,000 MW ultra supercritical coal-fired units.

Regulations now require the phase out by 2020 of small high-emission coal-fired boilers used to generate heat and steam.

As an early mover in the industry, Sunpower has developed a robust portfolio and pipeline of projects through both greenfield projects and acquisitions of existing coal-fired boilers.

A Chinese consortium formed by two power generation equipment makers has officially won the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract for a coal-fired power plant in Egypt.

The two will provide six ultra-supercritical, near-zero polluting coal-fired power generating units with a total generating capacity of 6.6 gW for the Hamrawein power plant.

The China-backed Port Qasim coal-fired power plant in Pakistan is providing sufficient electricity supply for the country while optimizing its energy structure, which had previously depended on oil and gas, according to Power Construction Corp of China, also known as Power-China.

The plant consists of two advanced supercritical coal-fired generators that meet the World Bank's environmental protection standards.

It can also build more modern coal-fired power plants that emit 35 percent less carbon dioxide than older plants, Lin said.

Bangladeshi Ashuganj Power Station Company Limited (APSCL) on Tuesday signed an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract with the consortium of two Chinese firms for the installation of the 420-MW coal-fired power plant.

Two Chinese energy giants, China Shenhua Energy Company and GD Power Development Co. , have agreed to transfer their coal-fired entities and assets to form a joint venture.

China National Nuclear Corp, one of the country's largest nuclear companies, introduced the low-temperature heating reactor DHR-400 for residential heat generation, replacing coal-fired boilers as China aims to reduce coal consumption to curb pollution, the company said Tuesday.

CHENGDU — A joint China-Pakistan coal-fired power plant signed a loan contract with banks in Southwest China's Sichuan province.

The ministry said the total capacity in Cambodia last year was 2,008 megawatts, including 1,592 megawatts taken from hydropower plants, coal-fired power plants, oil-fueled power plants,and solar power plants.

"Geothermal energy has the capacity to partially replace coal-fired heat and reduce carbon footprint, especially in big cities," said Wang Zizong, deputy chief engineer of Sinopec Corp, Asia's largest refiner.

The first coal-fired power project led by a Chinese private company kicked off construction on Monday in Indonesia's West Kalimantan province.

It also helps to reduce air pollution caused by coal-fired power generation.

Regardless of this procedure, the memorandum of understanding PPC signed with CMEC a few months ago to build a new coal-fired electricity producing plant in Florina in northern Greece will go ahead, he told Xinhua.

"Like our coal-fired power plant in Vietnam, we worked with ABB because they provided a complete solution," Zhou added.

[Photo/Xinhua]The listed units of Shenhua, Guodian halt trading in sharesChina's largest coal miner and a coal-fired power giant are reported to be in merger discussions, as their listed units halted share trading on Monday.

On the same day, Guodian Technology and Environment Group, the listed unit of China Guodian Corp, one of the nation's largest coal-fired power generators, issued a similar statement, saying it was informed of the "proposed planning of a significant event".

Before the latest proposed merger between Shenhua and China Guodian, a proposal of reorganizing eight coal-fired and nuclear power enterprises into three giants had been put forward in China's power industry, Bloomberg said.

This coal-fired power plant was funded, constructed and operated by the Chinese enterprise China Huadian Corporation (CHD).

It is usually a challenge to build and run a coal-fired power plant in a world-class tourist destination, but the operation and management of the plant has proved successful, which has not only eliminated the doubts, but won the praise from local people and partners.

Many executives in China's nuclear power sector have pitched the use of small scale reactors, as an alternative heat source to lessen dependence on coal-fired plants to reduce pollution.

He added that the electric power supply available in 2016 was 2,008 mWs, including 1,592 mWs taken from hydropower plants, coal-fired power plants, oil-fueled power plants, and solar power plants, and 416 mWs imported from Vietnam, Thailand and Laos.

Hu Hao, senior business manager of PowerChina Resources, said a coal-fired power plant co-developed by the company in southern Pakistan has provided "affordable and reliable electricity" for local residents.

The Port Qasim Coal-Fired Power Plant, located by the Arabian Sea in Karachi, has been jointly developed by PowerChina Resources and Qatar's Al Mirqab Capital.

According to data from the NEA, China's installed renewable energy capacity reached 1.32 billion kilowatts as of June, a year-on-year increase of 18.2 percent, surpassing coal-fired power and accounting for 48.8 percent of the country's total.

The ultra-supercritical coal-fired power station project that the company built in Bangladesh has the largest installed capacity of any power project in the country so far, helping Bangladesh to achieve full power coverage, said Lu.

As power consumption is likely to increase this year, the CEC proposed a series of measures to ensure energy supply, which include increasing the ability to supply coal, reducing the cost of coal-fired power generation, and accelerating planning, investment and construction of power grids.

On the energy front, the meeting decided that advanced coal production capacity will be unlocked on an ongoing basis and policies for addressing the difficulties of coal-fired power plants implemented.

Under pressure from carbon reduction efforts, EU countries have increased the use of natural gas and other energy resources to replace and eventually phase out coal-fired power, resulting in natural gas, crude oil and other commodities surging dramatically.

The local government said Liupanshui has been deepening transformation of traditional industries, especially the coal-fired power and the steel industries.

The intensity-based allocation method also creates incentives for power sector entities to run more efficient coal-fired plants over less efficient ones.

The first time was on Jan 24, when it demanded to step up the planning and construction of new energy supplies and use a system based on large wind and solar power facilities that receive support from nearby clean, efficient, advanced and energy-saving coal-fired power assets, and also use safe and reliable ultrahigh voltage transmission lines.

Obviously, the main components of the new energy supply and use systems are wind and solar power bases, coal-fired power surrounding bases and UHV transmission lines.

The premier highlighted stable grain and energy prices as the key to stabilizing commodity prices, calling for stronger steps to ensure bumper grain harvests for this year, bolster the power supply from coal-fired plants and prevent power outages.

China Energy Engineering Corp Ltd expects the project will have an annual average heating efficiency of 87.78 percent and an average thermoelectric ratio of 85.1 percent, enough to replace three backup generator units and 10 coal-fired boilers of four paper-making companies in Zhongtang.

A number of new hydropower and coal-fired power projects will start this year.

He suggested the nation control coal use so that the record coal consumption in 2013(around 4.2 billion metric tons) will remain the peak while overseeing coal-fired power generation to ensure new energy will gradually become the major power source in China.

The potential for up-to-date production capacity of coal must be further unleashed, and policies to support coal-fired power plants must be put in place to ensure the stability of energy supplies, the premier said.

In addition, tax payments were postponed for micro, small and medium enterprises－MSMEs－in manufacturing as well as coal-fired power plants and heating-supply enterprises as a temporary measure.

More efforts will also be made to upgrade coal-fired power plants to conserve resources, reduce carbon emissions, make operations more flexible, and upgrade heating facilities.

The government will continue optimizing the energy mix via furthering the use of wind and solar in more arid areas while upgrading and reconstructing existing coal-fired power generation units.

Luo said the upgrade and reconstruction of existing coal-fired power generation units emphasize the importance of fossil fuels in ensuring energy security and peak load regulation.

Up to 27.1 billion yuan in taxes on coal-fired power plants and heating companies were cut, rebated or delayed during the same period, STA data showed.

In September, President Xi pledged that China will not build new coal-fired power projects abroad.

In September, China announced it would not build new coal-fired power projects overseas as it stepped up support for other developing countries to advance green and low-carbon energy.

No more coal-fired power plants will be built as part of the BRI, and a large number of hydropower projects are completed, underway or in the pipeline.

It further pledged in September to stop building new coal-fired power projects abroad.

In line with market principles, the 200-billion yuan targeted re-lending program, which focuses on priority areas and is more operable, will provide targeted support for safe, efficient, green and smart coal mining, clean and efficient coal processing, clean and efficient use of coal-fired power, clean industrial combustion and heating, clean residential heating and comprehensive utilization of coal resources, and vigorously promote the development and utilization of coalbed methane.

The rigid on-grid power price mechanism, under which the power price is allowed to fluctuate only within a certain range, exacerbated the power shortage as coal-fired power plants have little incentives to produce in light of soaring coal prices.

While the country has been pushing for green development, coal still accounts for about 57 percent of China's primary energy consumption while coal-fired power generation makes up about 70 percent of the country's total.

Higher prices of coal-fired electricity would mean greater production costs for companies, especially those in the energy-intensive upstream industries, and could drive up prices of other raw materials, ultimately pushing inflation higher.

The regulator has reformed the power pricing mechanism, expanding the fluctuation range to 20 percent which could help reduce the losses coal-fired power plants have to bear.

As a tight coal supply eases, the fuel stocks of key coal-fired plants in the country are accelerating growth.

"In recent days, the daily coal supply to key coal-fired power plants has surpassed 8 million tonnes, with the highest figure topping 8.32 million tons, a historic high," the NDRC said.

The meeting also decided to defer tax payment of around 17 billion yuan for coal-fired power companies and heating firms to ease their operating difficulties.

An improved pricing mechanism for coal-fired power was also released to deepen market-oriented pricing reform in the sector.

All coal-fired power, which is more than 65 percent of the total, is supposed to be priced in response to changing conditions of supply and demand, he said, adding power supplied to energy-intensive industrial users－about 45 percent of the nation's total power consumption－should be charged at market-driven prices.
