Mitsubishi Power has received an order for an M701F gas turbine and a steam turbine for the 500 MW gas turbine combined cycle (GTCC) power plant in Sarawak, Malaysia. The equipment supply contract was signed between Mitsubishi Power and Sinohydro Corp. Ltd., the engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning contractor for this project.

In addition to supplying core equipment, Mitsubishi Power will provide auxiliary equipment and dispatch technical advisors essential to support the installation and commissioning of the equipment. The gas turbine will be designed to co-fire fuel containing up to 30% hydrogen, making it the most advanced power generation facility in Sarawak, according to Mitsubishi Power.

Located in Miri, a city in northeastern Sarawak, the project is owned and operated by PETROS Power Sdn. Bhd. (PETROS), which is developing the GTCC power plant.

Mitsubishi Power has also secured a long-term service Agreement with PETROS to ensure the stable operational performance of the power plant following its commercial operation. The generators for the power plant will be manufactured by Mitsubishi Generator Co. Ltd.

“This project, equipped with our hydrogen-ready M701F gas turbine, reaffirms our commitment to supporting Malaysia’s journey towards net-zero by 2050,” said Akihiro Ondo, CEO and managing director of Mitsubishi Power Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. “We are grateful for the trust of PETROS, and the opportunity to realize Sarawak’s hydrogen potential to drive the energy transition alongside our local industry partners.”
