Singapore power plant to be built with Siemens' components

Siemens will supply the power block and other main components for the new combined-cycle power plant in Singapore.

As part of the largest seawater desalination facility Tuaspring in Singapore, the plant will deliver around 411 megawatts of environmentally friendly electricity. Tuaspring is scheduled to go online in 2014. Purchaser is Hydrochem (S) Pte Ltd., a subsidiary of Hyflux Ltd.

Siemens' scope of supply will include a Model SGT5-4000F gas turbine, the heat recovery steam generator, one SST5-3000 steam turbine, an SGen5-2000H-series hydrogen-cooled generator and the SPPA-T3000 instrumentation and control system as well as the associated auxiliary and ancillary systems. The company has also concluded a long-term service agreement with the client covering the major components, and will also supply the plant's electrical switchgear and transformers.

"We view this first order from Hyflux to be a demonstration of their trust in our know-how and technology. Siemens places the greatest value on tried-and-tested and highly reliable technology, and this will be a decisive factor on the electricity market in Singapore. With an efficiency of approximately 59 percent the Tuaspring plant will contribute significantly towards securing Singapore an efficient and thus economical as well as clean power supply", states Lothar Balling, Head of Gas Turbine Power Plant Solutions at Siemens' Fossil Power Generation Division.
