Pingdingshan unit covers 1000MW mid-west China void
Unit 1 of Pingdingshan phase I has been commissioned to cover up for 1000MW void in mid-west China.
The 2×1000MW unit recently passed the 168-hour test run. It is a key project of CPI and Henan province in the 11th Five-year Plan, and also the first project nationwide with single unit capacity of 1000MW that was approved to “replace small units with big ones”.
The completion and commissioning of Unit 1 is of profound significance for enhancing safety and stability of 500kV grid in Henan Province, improving the hydro-thermal dispatching ability of central China grid, optimizing the asset mix of CPI Henan Branch, and helping CPI realize the Three-step strategic goal.
