The project is being executed in a joint venture between MHPS and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, which is responsible for the supply of three generators and control systems as part of a full turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract.

MHPS is planning to source the three gas turbines and related equipment from its Takasago Works located in Takasago City, Hyogo Prefecture and the three steam turbines from Hitachi Works in Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture.

Furthermore, the firm will supply the heat recovery steam generators and exhaust gas denitrizer systems from its Kure Works in Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture.

The JAC gas turbines, which will be used for the project, will feature a forced air-cooled combustor system.

The system will use advanced turbine blade cooling technologies that include an extra thick film thermal insulation coating, and high-pressure compressors.
