China launches the world's highest-altitude coal power unit at 2,850 meters
In the city of Golmud in Qinghai province, the first power-generating unit of an ultra-supercritical coal-fired power plant located at an altitude of about 2,850 meters — higher than any similar plant in the world — has been put into commercial operation. Two units of 660 MW each are expected to generate about 6 billion kWh per year.
