A Myamnar Now article reported on the pending resumption to operation of the Tigyit coal-fired power plant in Southern Shan State, invested by Wuxi Huaguang Environmental Protection Energy Group, a China state-owned listed company. According to the report, the plant, having recently completed its second phase of construction, is expected to increase its power generation capacity from 90 megawatts to approximately 120 megawatts upon resuming operations. The project has reportedly sparked strong opposition from multiple local stakeholders. Residents demand the plant's shutdown, citing long-term impacts of its emissions on daily life, while environmental watchdogs point out that the plant lacks adequate pollution control technology.
