Beijing Restarts Coal-Fired Power Plant as Extreme Cold Grips Capital
What’s new: All four coal-fired units in Beijing’s only coal plant are again back up and running to meet the rising heating demand in the city, the plant operator announced on Tuesday.
The Huaneng Beijing Thermal Power Plant, located in the eastern part of the capital, was closed in 2017 as the municipal authorities sought to turn the city’s power plants green.
Nevertheless, this is the sixth time since then that the thermal plant has been used to meet an increasing demand for power, the operator told Caixin.
