Since 2003, China has adopted the development strategy to develop high parameter and large capacity generating units and to shut down small thermal power generators. Since then, China mainly adopted generating units with a capacity of above 300MW per generator, which are of high parameters, high efficiency and good performance in peak shaving, and built mine pit power plants to transmit electricity to areas with power shortage, aiming at broadening the scope of optimizing allocation of resources.

In the future, the introduction of generating units with a capacity of 300MW (especially above 600MW) per generator will be encouraged by government policies, while generating units with a capacity of below 300MW per generator will be restricted or banned, due to the differences of installed capacity.

This report is based on the authoritative statistics from the National Development and Reform Commission, State Electricity Regulatory Commission and the National Bureau of Statistics and the detailed statistics from the local development and reform commissions and local electricity regulators.
