Integrated coal, power project for Shanxi province
BEIJING, CHINA - China Huadian Corporation signed an agreement with the Shanxi Coking Coal Group on to build the Qinyuan Coal and Power Co-production Project in Qinyuan County, Shanxi province.
In 2005, China Huadian signed a letter of intent with Qinyuan's government to build the integrated coal and power project in the county, and established a preparation office.

China Huadian also signed a long-term agreement with the Shanxi Jincheng Anthracite Mining Group for coal procurement.
