– Mitsubishi Power received an order for a gas turbine combined cycle power generation system for Lamma Power Station’s Unit 13 in Hong Kong
– The new turbine has an output of 350 MW and is part of a project to increase the ratio of gas-fired power generation in line with the Hong Kong government’s policy
– The GTCC system includes a gas turbine, steam turbine, heat recovery steam generator, Selective Catalytic Reduction System, and a generator manufactured by Mitsubishi Generator Co.
Mitsubishi Power, a division of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, has received an order for gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) power generation system equipment for Lamma Power Station’s Unit 13 in Hong Kong. The new turbine will have an output of 350 MW, generating a total of 380 MW, and is set to start operating in early 2029. This order follows previous orders for Units 10, 11, and 12 in July 2015.
The GTCC power generation facilities will be constructed on Lamma Island, southwest of Hong Kong Island, as part of a project to increase gas-fired power generation in line with the Hong Kong government’s policy. The equipment will include a M701F gas turbine, a steam turbine, a heat recovery steam generator, and a Selective Catalytic Reduction System (SCR) manufactured by Mitsubishi Power and Mitsubishi Generator Co.
HK Electric, the sole electricity provider to Hong Kong Island and Lamma Island, has a longstanding partnership with Mitsubishi Power. The new facility will help meet the region’s power demand and reduce carbon emissions, as natural gas is seen as a transition fuel by Hong Kong officials. Mitsubishi Power’s new equipment is expected to contribute to a more environmentally friendly power generation process in Hong Kong.
