Combined-cycle gas-fired power plant
Gulf Pluak Daeng (GPD) Project Abstract
The Gulf PD power plant is a 2.6GW gas-fired combined-cycle power project planned to be developed in Pluak Daeng, Rayong province, Thailand. The plant will be built and operated by Gulf PD Company, a joint venture between Thailand’s Gulf Energy Development Public Company (GED, 70%) and Japanese conglomerate Mitsui (30%). The plant will be developed in two phases, with two generating units to be installed in each phase. The phase one is scheduled for completion in 2023, while phase two is expected to commence operations in 2024. The Gulf PD power station will consist of four gas-fired combined-cycle units of more than 660MW installed capacity each. Each of the four units will be equipped with one air-cooled M701JAC gas turbine, one steam turbine, and one heat recovery steam generator. Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS) will supply the gas and steam turbines as well as ancillary equipment for each unit, while the generators will be provided by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. The units will run on natural gas as the primary fuel, while diesel will be utilised as the back-up fuel.The plant is expected to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by approximately 70% compared to a conventional coal-fired power station of the similar capacity.
