Huaneng Beijing CHP Expansion boosts combined heat and power in Chaoyang's Gaobeidian with 9F-class gas turbines, cogeneration, district heating, and high-efficiency combined-cycle capacity for Beijing's urban energy system, improving reliability and capacity.
The Main Points
A $480 million Phase II adding 900 MW and extensive district heating via 9F-class combined-cycle gas and steam units.
- Two 9F-class gas turbines plus one steam turbine generator
- Adds 900 MW to existing 845 MW installed capacity
- Supplies about one-third of Beijing's total heat
Construction of China Huaneng Group's Beijing Thermal Power Plant Phase II combined-cycle expansion project, namely the Beijing Southeast Thermal & Electricity Center, has begun.
Lin Ji, the deputy mayor of Beijing City, Cao Peixi, the general manager of China Huaneng Group, and other leaders and representatives from the China power industry attended the ceremony.
Huaneng Beijing Thermal Power Plant, located at Gaobeidian in the Chaoyang district, is the largest combined heat and power project and combined-cycle power plant operated by China Huaneng Group in Beijing, and also the largest heat supplier in China. The power plant currently has a total installed capacity of 845 megawatts MW with a total heat supply capacity of 1.34 billion kilocalories per hour, accounting for about one-third of the total heat supply in Beijing.
The Phase II Expansion project will be furnished with two 9F-class combined-cycle gas turbine generators together with one steam turbine generator. The project has an estimated total investment value of $480 million, while a CO2 capture project in Beijing is also beginning. Huaneng Beijing Thermal Power Company Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of China Huaneng Group, is responsible for the construction and the future operation of the project.
According to the schedule, the project will begin operation by the winter of 2011. Upon completion, the project will add an additional 900 MW of installed capacity even as new coal plants are being approved nationwide, and another 13 million square meters of heat supply area.
As reported, Beijing will promote the construction of four large-scale thermal and electricity centers, while a massive coal plant elsewhere has recently begun operations, to establish a highly efficient urban heat supply system in the next five years.
