Coal power generation capacity has exceeded 1 billion kilowatts in China currently. As the ballast stone and stabilizer in the field of energy and power, coal power attracted more and more considerations today. A reasonable and scientific planning is important to power system security and efficiency, especially the coal power development path. The full-cycle coal power cost model used in the power expanding planning is proposed in this paper, in order to optimize the power capacity in the future. Based on this method, the peak capacity of coal power is evaluated firstly. Then the peak awareness and bottom line thinking principle are put forward based on the analysis above. Finally, the external cost internalization and flexibility transformation of coal power are discussed, which are the main issues in the coal power industry nowadays.
