Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas) -- The #1 unit of Huadian Wuhu Power Plant Phase I Project was successfully connected to the Eastern China Power Grid via Wuhu-Ma'anshan Transmission Line at Wuhun City in Central China's Anhui Province on May 29, 2008. Commissioning of the unit will help the Anhui Grid effectively alleviate power shortages during peak load periods in the coming summer season.
Huadian Wuhu Power Plant is located about 23 kilometers from Wuhu downtown at the bank of the Yangtze River. The power plant has a capacity of 3,320 megawatts (MW). Two 660 MW ultra supercritical coal-fired units make up Phase I of the project, for a total investment of $715 million. Pre-stage preparation of the project was initially started in September 2003. On December 31, 2005, the project received approval from the National Development and Reform Commission. Construction of the project was officially started on August 18, 2006.
Presently, HWPGC is working closely with all parties involved for the performing of on-grid tests and fault elimination to be well prepared for the coming 168 hours full-load trial operation. When both units of the project are put into commercial operation, the project could have an annual power output of 6.6 billion kilowatt-hours.
