KEPCO and Tenaga are losing millions, and they are blaming it on thermal coal prices that reach a 20% increase: a new record high.

With over 30 years of existence, Turbomach has strengthened its position as a major player in the power generation market with over 1’000 Gas Turbine generator sets installed in more than 90 countries.

Electricity distribution is on the cusp of a major transformation in Asia. While Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) has been the mainstay of Asia’s electricity distribution systems, the advantages of a communication-driven, self-healing Smart Grid are becoming abundantly clear.

Quartzelec, the world-renowned electrical engineering group, is investing significantly in the Asian and Middle East region as part of its strategy of seeking new business opportunities in markets outside the UK and mainland Europe.

North America gets more accessible supply of wind blade technology starting July 1.

Power outages can happen anytime. Violent rainstorms and flash flooding almost always result in blackouts, especially in countries where the national power-grid is fragile. Thus efficient electrical generators are a must for entities to counter the repercussions brought about by power disruptions. Providing the highest quality power solutions for Generators has been the role of Perkins, the world’s leading supplier of off-highway diesel engines and gas engines in the 4-2500 kW market. Through many years of providing various industries with their engine needs, Perkins has grown to become synonymous with fuel efficiency and high power output.

The 6800 Controls are available for overhead and underground switching and sectionalizing applications.

Tan Sri Leo Moggie, Chairmain of Tenaga Nasional, shared perspectives as part of the inaugural EMA Distinguished Speaker Programme.

The project targets to increase generation capacity for the demands of the Hail region.

In 1997, after 17 years in the UK energy industry, I joined an investment bank, I moved to Hong Kong, and I began to cover the Asian power sector. For anyone involved in the power industry, the insatiable demand for new capacity made Asia the most exciting region in the world. But, as I set about my new role in banking, little did I realize just how exciting this journey would become. And, 14 years later, how that excitement would still burn brightly - but be accompanied by a degree of frustration.



Smart Grid is the modernization of the existing power grid using digital technology in order to derive a number of benefits such as energy efficiency, security and reliability of power supply, and integration of electricity generated from renewable sources. It will be able to co-ordinate the needs and capabilities of all generators, grid operators, end users and electricity market stakeholders in such a way that it can optimize asset utilization and operation and minimize both costs and environmental impacts while maintaining system reliability, resilience and stability.

South East Asia's economic growth will continue for the next 5 years and economic growth will continue to prompt infrastructure development, Minoru Kaneko, Singapore Chief Representative for NEXI predicts.

The equipment will help the country's energy and environmental goals.
