Siemens China : wins its first gas engine order in China

Siemens Power and Gas Division will provide three SGE-56HM gas engines for a CCHP distributed energy project for a company in the economic development zone of Anshan, Liaoning province in the northeastern region of China. This order represents the first CCHP project launched in Anshan, and marks the debut of Siemens' gas engine in the China market. Anshan, an industrial city noted for its steel production, opens the curtain of energy transformation from coal to gas. Beijing Huashenghuanneng Technology Co., Ltd. will lead the design, construction and operation of the entire project.

With a power output of 1.2 MW, Siemens SGE-56HM gas engine features an innovative design, a small footprint and high energy efficiency. Moreover, it performs well in terms of overall efficiency, fuel flexibility and operational availability. Boosting power generation efficiency of 42.5%, a thermal efficiency of 47.5% and energy efficiency up to 90%, the engine is fuel- and cost-effective. Siemens gas engines are widely used in fields such as industrial utilities and services, bio and biomass energy plants, and in oil and gas applications.

Following project completion, the power generation technology of both the ORC turbine and gas engine are expected to provide energy-efficient generating units for China's distributed energy project and provide the customer with power, heating and cooling. The project can provide 18,825,000 kW/h of electricity per year, while meeting the heating demand of 60,000 square meters. In addition, the project will enable the customer to save about 7,530 tons of coal, and reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 19,500 tons per year, yielding a positive and significant effect on controlling air pollution, conserving energy and reducing emissions.

'It's a great honor for us to bring our cutting-edge gas engine technology to Anshan, echoing the coal-to-gas project promoted by the government in response to climate challenges', said Zhang Tiangui, Senior Vice President of Siemens Ltd., China and General Manager of Dresser-Rand, Power and Gas Division. 'Siemens has dedicated to offer our advanced gas engine and gas turbine technology to China, supporting the country's transformation from coal to clean energy. This cooperation also fully reflects the customer's trust in Siemens' global experience and advanced technologies. We will continue to give full play to the high reliability, efficiency and quality of Siemens products to ultimately help the customer reduce its overall lifecycle costs ecologically.'
