Alstom wins €70 million contract to supply equipment to Guanyinyan hydroelectric dam in China

Alstom has won a contract worth approximately €70 million for the supply of equipment to a new hydroelectric dam in China, underlining its position as one of the leading equipment suppliers to the country’s booming hydropower industry.

The contract, awarded to Alstom by the Datang Guanyinyan Hydropower Development Co. Ltd, involves the supply of three 600 MW Francis turbine generator units to the new Guanyinyan hydropower station on the Jinsha River in Yunnan province. The first unit is due to enter commercial operation in 2014.

DaTang Guanyinyan Hydropower Development Co. Ltd is a member of the China Datang Corporation, one of China’s top five power generation groups. This is Alstom’s second contract with the company following the PengShui hydropower project in 2004, for which Alstom supplied five 350 MW Francis turbine generator units.

“This contract demonstrates the faith that Chinese customers are placing in our advanced technology,” said Philippe Cochet, Senior Vice President, Alstom Hydro and Wind. “China has enormous potential for the expansion of hydropower and Alstom is glad to be supporting this growth with its clean power solutions.”

Hydropower accounts for 22% of China’s electricity generation capacity and is expanding at a rate of 15 GW per year. Over 110 new hydro projects are currently in the planning stage, to be completed by 2020.

Alstom is one of China’s leading hydro equipment producers. To date, the company has signed contracts for hydro turbines and generators in China covering 45 GW, out of which approximately 28 GW are already in commercial operation. Key projects include Three Gorges Dam, the world’s largest power plant, to which Alstom supplied 14 units of 700 MW each, XiaJiang (five 40 MW units), Li Yuan (four 600 MW units) and Xianjiaba (four 800 MW units). The 800 MW turbines designed, engineered and manufactured by Alstom for Xianjiaba are the world’s largest hydro turbines ever manufactured to date.

On 4 November, Alstom inaugurated its new hydropower manufacturing facility at Tianjin in China, Alstom Hydro China Co. Ltd (AHC) With a total area of nearly 250,000 square metres, the site is capable of delivering up to 30 turbine and generator units per year with outputs ranging from 20 MW to 1000 MW and will place Alstom in an even better position to supply its customers in China and abroad.
