China’s Harbin Electric Corp. (HE) has awarded GE a contract to provide a 9HA gas turbine for the 650 MW Huadian Tianjin Junliangcheng VI gas combined-cycle power plant project (“Junliangcheng”). Delivery of the gas turbine, which will be the first HA to be installed in China, is scheduled for the third quarter of 2018. “GE has worked closely with HE for more than a decade, and today’s announcement represents a significant milestone in our journey to deliver the world’s most advanced gas turbine technology in China,” said Joe Mastrangelo, president and CEO, GE’s Gas Power Systems. “Bringing the HA to China is important for the acceleration of China’s power industry, enabling more affordable, reliable, accessible and sustainable power generation.”  Over the last 10 years, the Chinese gas electricity industry has seen growth of 334%. The 13 th  Five Year Plan of Electricity Development estimates that from 2015 ...

The 9HA high efficiency, air-cooled gas turbine is an industry leader among H-class offerings, and now the 9HA.01 is at the heart of the  world's most efficient combined-cycle power plant . With two available models—the 9HA.01 at 429 MW and the 9HA.02 at 519 MW—customers can easily select the right capacity to meet their generation needs. INDUSTRY-LEADING OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY Features a fast 12-minute ramp-up from start command to full load, and up to 70 MW/minute ramping capability in a 1x1 configuration or 140 MW/minute in a 2x1 configuration. LESS COMPLEX H-CLASS OFFERING Showcases a simpler configuration than GE’s previous H-class fleet and doesn’t require a separate cooling air system. VALIDATED AND PROVEN The 9HA has undergone a full-speed, full-load validation test at our Greenville, SC facility in 2015 and exceeded engineering performance expectations. 9HA.01/.02 Gas Turbine The world's largest and most efficient heavy-duty gas turbine.
