GE announced today that as part of a contract worth over 1 billion, Malakoff Corporation Berhads (Malakoff) 1,000-megawatt (MW) Tanjung Bin Energy Power Plant (T4) has entered commercial operation on schedule. GEs Steam Power Systems, together with its consortium partners Mudajaya and Shin Eversenda, has executed the engineering, procurement and construction agreement for the plant. The ultra-supercritical, coal-fired power plant, which commenced construction in March 2012, was completed on schedule in four years.

GE was the leader of the consortium, engineered and supplied key equipment and was responsible for the overall integration and commissioning of the plant. The plant operates on GEs most modern steam turbine and generator technology, its ultra-supercritical boiler and GEs proprietary environmental control systems. The emissions at the plant are significantly reduced through the use of low NOx burners, a highly efficient seawater flue gas desulphurization facility and fabric filters to lower nitrous oxide, sulphur oxide and dust emissions.

GEs highly efficient technology solution implemented at our T4 plant is helping us to ensure the generation of affordable electricity at lower environmental impact, said Habib Husin, acting CEO, Malakoff Corporation Berhad. This ultra-supercritical plant will deliver an additional 1,000 MW to the grid.

GEs Steam Power Systems pioneered ultra-supercritical steam generation and is today one of the technology leaders in advanced and ultra-supercritical technology. This technology has achieved efficiencies up to 47 percentabove the global average rate of existing power plants of around 30 percentlowering fuel consumption and emissions. Each additional percentage point in efficiency reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 2 to 3 percent, said Andreas Lusch, CEO, GEs Steam Power Systems. This project is another example of GEs commitment to the development of energy mix diversification in the region. The plant provides enough energy to power 2 million people.

GEs Steam Power Systems has more than a century in steam expertise and has installed 320 gigawatts of power across the globe with all fuels availablefrom coal to nuclear energy to biomass. To respond to the continuous and increasing energy demand, GEs Steam Power Systems offers a wide portfolio from component to full turnkey power plants and stands by its partners with full services activities to maintain the equipment.

Malakoff is an independent water and power producer (IPP) with core focuses on power generation, water desalination and operation and maintenance services. In Malaysia, Malakoff is the largest IPP with a net generating capacity of 6,346 MW from six power plants.
