Mitsubishi Power, a leading power solutions brand under the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group, has secured a significant order for an H-25 gas turbine. This turbine will be utilized in Chang Chun Petrochemical's Miaoli Factory in Taiwan, marking a pivotal moment in the company's commitment to sustainable energy solutions.
The H-25 gas turbine is set to power a high-efficiency natural gas-fired cogeneration facility, replacing the existing heavy oil and coal-fired boilers. With an output capacity of 30MW, the facility will commence operations in late 2028, providing essential electric power and steam for the manufacturing processes at the factory.
This project aligns with Taiwan's energy policy goals, aiming to enhance plant efficiency and significantly reduce CO2 emissions. Chang Chun Petrochemical, a key player in the petrochemical industry, is a subsidiary of the Chang Chun Group, a prominent conglomerate in Taiwan. Mitsubishi Power has a long-standing relationship with the group, having supplied major equipment, including steam turbines and boilers, since 1984.
The H-25 gas turbine is renowned for its high reliability, backed by extensive long-term operational experience. Mitsubishi Power has successfully delivered and operated over 200 units worldwide since receiving the initial order for the H-25 in 1987. By utilizing the H-25 in cogeneration facilities, Mitsubishi Power enhances plant efficiency and reduces CO2 emissions compared to conventional boiler-based systems.
This latest order underscores the trust Mitsubishi Power has earned through its track record and positive relationship with Chang Chun Petrochemical. As Mitsubishi Power continues to expand its distributed power generation business globally, it remains committed to strengthening industrial infrastructure and reducing environmental impacts associated with energy production.
