Toshiba to supply steam turbines and generators for Duyen Hai 3 extension coal-fired power plant

The contract was awarded by Japan’s Sumitomo Corporation, the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor for the project. Toshiba will make delivery in 2016 and the plant will start operation in 2018.

The Duyen Hai 3 extension coal-fired power plant invested in by the state-run Electricity of Vietnam with the total investment capital VND22.7 trillion (more than $1 billion), start construction in December last year. The new power plant, a part of the 4,348 megawatt Duyen Hai power centre, will be able to produce 3.9 billion kWh of electricity every year.

Toshiba has a track record for supplying electric generation equipment for large coal-fired thermal power plants in Vietnam. In the last six years, the company has been awarded orders for the Vung Ang 1 thermal power plant, the Thai Binh 2 thermal plant and the Vinh Tan 4 Thermal Plant. This experience, and the performance and reliability of Toshiba’s STGs, won a positive evaluation from Sumitomo Corporation.

Toshiba said that the firm would continue its effort to develop thermal generation equipment with the world’s highest level of efficiency for super-critical coal fired plants and for combined cycle thermal power plants, and to reinforce its thermal power plant business in emerging countries. Going forward, Toshiba Group will look to contribute to economic development in emerging countries by supporting measures to secure stable power supply.

Toshiba Corporation, a Fortune Global 500 company, channels world-class capabilities in advanced electronic and electrical product and systems into five strategic business domains: energy and infrastructure, community solutions, healthcare systems and services, electronic devices and components, and lifestyles products and services.

Founded in Tokyo in 1875, today’s Toshiba is at the heart of a global network of over 590 consolidated companies employing over 200,000 people worldwide, with annual sales surpassing 6.5 trillion yen ($63 billion).
