Malaysian independent power producer, Edra Energy Sdn Bhd, and GE have announced the start of commercial operation for Edra’s power plant in Alor Gajah, Malacca, Malaysia.
The combined cycle power plant is Malaysia’s largest according to GE and feeds 2.2GW to the national grid, roughly 10% of the country’s current electricity needs.
The plant is powered by GE’s core power plant equipment and will be maintained with a service agreement to manage the project’s lifecycle.
The new plant consists of three generating blocks capable of generating over 745MW per block, each including a GE 9HA.02 gas turbine, a STF-D650 steam turbine, a W88 generator and a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG).
