Siemens has secured its first order in China for an H-class gas turbine. The company will supply two H-class gas turbines, two steam turbines, and four generators for a power plant project in Guangdong Province.

The customer is Huadian Fuxin Energy Corporation Limited (Huadian Fuxin), a subsidiary of China Huadian Corporation Limited (CHD). The components will be installed at the CHD Guangzhou ZengCheng combined cooling, heat, and power plant project located in the Zengcheng District of Guangzhou City. Commercial operation is scheduled for the end of 2019. Siemens said that on completion, the project will be the most efficient gas-fired power plant in China.

Zengcheng District, one of the three development engines of Guangzhou City, is replacing small coal-fired industrial boilers with natural gas-fired systems. Siemens plans to digitally upgrade and network CHD’s gas turbines, steam turbines, wind turbines and photovoltaic power generation units. This will be accomplished by deploying operation centres to build up a multi-energy intelligent power generation system that relies on acquisition and analysis of data from networked fleets to improve market responsiveness and operational efficiency through advanced diagnostic capabilities.
