On the heels of GE Vernova’s announcement of Chinese state-owned power utility Guandong Energy Group Co.,Ltd Huizhou power plant achieving a successful start of operation, GE Vernova Inc announced the utility’s Dongguan Ningzhou combined cycle power plant achieved the start of operations in the Guangdong province, China. The plant, powered by three 9HA.02 gas turbines, is expected to inject up to 2.4 gigawatts (GW) of power in addition to the 1.34 GW of power already delivered into the grid by the GE Vernova HA-powered Huizhou power plant.
China aims to achieve a carbon emissions peak by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Driven by these goals, the country is committed to reduce coal’s share of its energy mix and expedite the building of highly efficient gas-powered combined cycle plants, like Dongguan Ningzhou power plant. Dongguan Ningzhou project is also aligned to local government policy reform in the Greater Bay Area focused on the coal-to-gas energy transition.
GE Vernova HA technology offers among the lowest carbon emissions emissions per amount of fuel in the industry to give power plant operators, like Guandong Energy Group, the ability to reduce fuel consumption and lower carbon emissions.
“Dongguan Ningzhou plant plays a significant role in supporting a lower-carbon and more sustainable power generation in the Guangdong province, north of Hong Kong in the Greater Bay Area,” said Xu Xin, Gas Power Services China ITR Leader, GE Vernova. “We celebrated today the start of the operation of one of the largest gas plants in China. This plant will help boost the megapolis’ transition from coal to gas power generation to lower emissions. This milestone was achieved on time and safely, with the highest standards of quality, also thanks to the superb collaboration with our local partner, Harbin Electric who provided steam turbine, generator and balance-of-plant equipment.”
By using natural gas in a highly efficient way with GE Vernova’s H-class leading technology, the plant has a lower emissions impact with up to 60% less carbon emissions compared to plants of the same size powered by coal. In addition, to further advance decarbonization utilizing gas power, GE Vernova’s H-Class gas turbine portfolio currently has the capability to burn up to 50% by volume of hydrogen when blended with natural gas and with a future technology pathway to 100%,
Built on over 130 years of heritage, expertise and industry leadership, GE Vernova was the first international manufacturer and supplier of gas turbine technology entering China, serves over 110 gas power plants in China, and offers gas power producers and engineering, procurement, and construction companies (EPC) a world-class portfolio of technology and services for gas power plants in China, encompassing the entire lifecycle of their assets.
