2. China Huaneng Group placed its 1.5 Mtpa post-combustion carbon capture project into operation on Sept. 25, 2025, following a 72-hour trial run at the Zhengning coal-fired power plant (2 × 1,000 MW) in Gansu Province. Integrated into the Huaneng Longdong Energy Base, the facility reportedly captured more than 90% of CO2 from desulfurized flue gas using Huaneng’s proprietary HNC-7 solvent system, with captured CO2 designated for geological storage and utilization, according to the Global CCS Institute.
