Guodian Langfang power station is a 700 MW coal power station in Hebei, China. It ranks #1177 of 6,685 China power plants by installed capacity. Its modelled annual emissions are 2,602,500 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE), equivalent to about 607k cars driven for a year. In context, coal supplies about 54.3% of China's electricity; the national grid averages 525 gCO₂/kWh (41.7% low-carbon) (2025).

At 700 MW, Guodian Langfang power station is around the median coal plant in China (700 MW). Technically it is described as ultra-supercritical. Its current lifecycle status is “Announced” — so it is not yet, or no longer, generating at full output. Coal plants burn pulverised coal to raise high-pressure steam for a turbine; they run as baseload but are the most carbon-intensive mainstream source and the first targeted for retirement or efficiency retrofits.
