Chubu to help design Taipower plant

Taiwanese engineering firm GIBSIN Engineers, Ltd. commissioned Chubu Electric to provide design support consulting services for its Taipower project. GIBSIN has been successful in its bid to conduct facility replacement work for Units No. 1 and 2 of Taiwan Power Company's Talin coal-fired thermal power plant.

This project will replace aging thermal power plants with two high-efficiency 800 MW super-critical pressure coal-fired thermal power plants. Chubu Electric has introduced super-critical pressure coal-fired thermal units to its Hekinan Thermal Power Station at Hekinan City, Aichi Prefecture. Using the expertise that Chubu has accumulated up to the present, the company hopes to contribute to the reduction of environmental burden by providing consulting services related to this technology.
