On April 19, Guangyuan City and the Southwest Branch of China National Coal Energy Group Co., Ltd. signed a framework agreement on investment cooperation for the China National Coal Guangyuan coal-electricity integration project in Chengdu. Under the agreement, the Southwest Branch of China National Coal Energy Group Co., Ltd. will establish a demonstration base for low-carbon, green, safe, and efficient coal-fired power generation in Guangyuan. It plans to build 2 × 10 million kilowatt ultra-supercritical coal-fired power units, along with facilities for flue gas desulfurization, denitrification, and carbon dioxide capture and utilization ； Build a demonstration base for coal reserves and a modern coal storage facility, with a static storage capacity of 1.2 million tons. Guangyuan, located in northeastern Sichuan, is at the geometric center of the four major cities of Chengdu, Chongqing, Xi’an, and Lanzhou. It is planned to become a national comprehensive transportation hub. The Guangyuan railway hub in this area is the second-largest railway hub in Sichuan Province, serving as a distribution center for the transport of people and goods in northern and northeastern Sichuan. At present, Guangyuan City is striving to transform its resource advantages into industrial and economic advantages, and is making every effort to become a base for ensuring energy security in the Chengdu-Chongqing region. With the gradual implementation of projects such as China National Coal Group’s Guangyuan coal-electricity integration project, it is expected that by 2030 the total installed power capacity in Guangyuan will exceed 10 million kilowatts. This will enable the development of a modern energy system that is clean, low-carbon, safe, and efficient, thereby providing a solid energy foundation for the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle.
