Following the completion of transportation safety evaluation and energy conservation evaluation in 2011, the project finally received approval at the end of August 2011.

So far, site preparation has been completed and the foundation treatment is in progress. According to the schedule, main works of the project will begin in the first half of 2012 and be completed by the end of 2013.

Upon completion, the project will have a minimum heat (cold) supply capacity of 220 tons per hour to replace 33 small coal-fired boilers scattered in its service area. Compared with conventional coal-fired project, the project could reduce the emission of 3,281 metric tons of sulfur dioxide and 320,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year.
