GE on Wednesday said it will be providing maintenance services and a suite of digital solutions for the upcoming 718-megawatt (MW) power plant at Meghnaghat, in Bangladesh.<\/p>\n
The plant is owned by Reliance Bangladesh LNG & Power Ltd, a joint venture between India’s Reliance Power Limited and Japan’s JERA Co Inc.<\/p>\n
“GE’s proven track record of providing high-quality technology, services and advanced digital solutions along with the local footprint in Bangladesh, gives us the confidence that the 718 MW Meghnaghat power plant will set a new benchmark in delivering sustainable power to the people of Bangladesh,” said Ranjan Lohar, CEO, Reliance Bangladesh LNG & Power Ltd in a statement.<\/p>\n
The Meghnaghat power plant will be powered by two GE 9F gas turbines, one GE D11 steam turbine and three H53 generators. It will utilize re-gasified liquified natural gas (LNG) fuel to generate the equivalent electricity needed to supply more than 850,000 homes in Bangladesh.<\/p>\n
GE aims to bring improved availability and performance to the plant while performing all of the plant’s major maintenance needs over the term of the contract.<\/p>\n
“Today, by virtue of its economic growth, progressive policy framework and potential of infrastructure development, Bangladesh is a focal point for investment for global players in the power sector,” said Deepesh Nanda, CEO, GE Gas Power South Asia in the statement.<\/p>\n
GE’s installed base of gas turbines are generating approximately 3 GW of electricity in Bangladesh, it said.<\/p>\n
The company has a robust portfolio of gas turbine technologies including H-class, E-class, F-class, Frame 6, and aero-derivatives, installed across operational and upcoming power plants in the country, it added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
