The Smart Power Generation plant, consisting of three Wärtsilä 34SG engines running on natural gas, is scheduled to be fully operational during 2018. Wärtsilä's scope covers the equipment supply. The order is booked in the first quarter of 2017.
China Gezhouba Group Cooperation (CGGC), established in 1970, is a state-owned enterprise engaged in construction, environmental protection, real estate, cement, civil explosive, finance and equipment manufacturing.
The new Guangdong Huadian Panyu Wanbo CBD Distributed Energy Project power plant will be located in Guangzhou. It will generate electricity that will be fed into the national grid. The CHP plant will also provide heating and cooling energy to commercial office buildings and shopping malls in the area.
"We are happy to build the first gas-fired power plant in China together with Wärtsilä. We trust Wärtsilä's technology and its people, and we are sure that this project will be a success. With CHP technology we can not only provide power, but also heating and cooling for our ever growing commercial and residential construction industry." said Mr Lu, President of CGGC UN Power.
Wärtsilä's installed capacity of CHP plants totals approximately 11 GW. The company's total installed power generation capacity is over 63 GW in 176 countries.
