Combined-cycle power plant 1180 MW
In an effort to avoid blackouts and meet the power needs of nearly 190 million people, the Punjab government in Pakistan is working to provide more affordable, reliable power as quickly as possible. To help reduce the projected 5 gigawatt (GW) energy shortfall, GE will provide two high-efficiency 9HA.01 gas turbines and associated equipment to Harbin Electric International Company Limited (HEI), a longtime business associate, for the new 1.1 GW Bhikki combined-cycle power plant. Harbin will handle engineering, procurement and construction of the plant. The Bhikki plant will be able to generate the equivalent power needed to supply more than six million Pakistani homes, and is likely to be the largest, most efficient power plant in Pakistan. It is expected to enter commercial operation in 2017. GE’s 9HA is the world’s largest, most efficient gas turbine. It offers a net combined-cycle efficiency of more than 61 percent and leads the industry with cleaner, reliable and cost-effective conversion of fuel to electricity.
