| Description |
Sarawak Power Generation Sdn. Bhd. (SPG) intends to covert the existing two
(2) open-cycle gas turbine generating sets (GTG-7 and GTG-8) in the Bintulu
Power Station to one (1) block of Combined-Cycle Power Generation Plant at
Block 20, Kemena Land District, Tanjung Kidurong, Bintulu, Sarawak with a
new total capacity of about 330 MW. (New generation is only 110.37 MW)
With this combined cycle technology, the new facility is able to generate
about 30% more electricity from its fuel (natural gas) than it would with a
conventional open-cycle power system. It is estimated that the upgrading
towards the combined cycle technology will increase the existing generating
capacity of about 220 MW to 330 MW that would be able to cater for the
supply to more industries in the near future.
