We were honored to host a delegation of our partners ACWA Power headed by their CEO Marco ARCELLI at our Takasago Machinery Works facility in #Japan, where they met with a group of our senior MHI executives led by Masanori Yuri, Principal, Senior Vice President, GTCC Business Division of Energy Systems, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd., to explore Mitsubishi Power’s state-of-the-art #power #technology, services, and processes. While there, they toured our T-Point 2 combined cycle power plant validation facility and Takasago Hydrogen Park, the world's first integrated hydrogen validation facility, which features our #hydrogen-ready and industry-leading gas turbines. We are excited to collaborate with our partners in #Saudi Arabia and across the region to meet their needs for #clean, #reliable and #efficient #electricity and #power continued progress and a #carbon neutral future. تشرفنا باستضافة وفد من شركة "أكوا باور"، بقيادة رئيسها التنفيذي ماركو أرتشيلي، في منشأتنا "تاكاساغو ماشينيري وركس" في #اليابان. وخلال الزيارة، التقى الوفد بفريق من كبار مسؤولينا التنفيذيين، برئاسة ماسانوري يوري، المدير والنائب الأول لرئيس قطاع أعمال توربينات الغاز بالدورة المركبة في أنظمة الطاقة لدى شركة #ميتسوبيشي_باور، للبحث في أحدث مستجدّات التقنية والخدمات والعمليات في "ميتسوبيشي باور". وخلال الزيارة، قام الضيوف بجولة للاطلاع عن كثب على منشأتنا المتطورة لاختبارات الكفاءة والأداء في محطة توليد #الطاقة بالدورة المركبة "تي بوينت 2" ومركز "تاكاساغو هيدروجين بارك"، أول مركز متخصّص في العالم لتنفيذ عمليات تطبيق واعتماد التقنيات المتعلقة بالهيدروجين، والمزوّد بتوربينات الغاز المجهّزة للعمل بوقود الهيدروجين والرائدة على مستوى القطاع عالمياً. نحن نطلع للتعاون مع شركائنا في #المملكة_العربية_السعودية وفي جميع أنحاء المنطقة لتمكينهم من توفير الكهرباء النظيفة بموثوقية وكفاءة عالية، ودعم مسيرة التقدم المتواصلة في قطاع #الطاقة لضمان مستقبل خالٍ من #الكربون. #MitsubishiPower #Changeinpower #MoveTheWorldForward #KSA #UAE #Mena #energy

“Buy Proof, Not Promises,” isn’t just a slogan for us. Our first JAC advanced class gas turbine underwent at least 8,000 hours of validation at our Takasago demonstration facility. That’s equivalent to nearly one year of normal operation. This unrivaled validation helped J-POWER USA’s team know they were making the right choice when selecting Mitsubishi Power as a partner for their Jackson Generation power plant.

The Forefront of Hydrogen Power Generation #2 The Takasago Hydrogen Park consists of three zones for production, storage, and utilization of hydrogen. In the production zone, hydrogen production began in September 2023 using an alkaline water electrolyzer manufactured by HydrogenPro AS of Norway.  A test unit of a Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (#SOEC) that we have been developing began operation this spring.  We are also working on next-generation Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) and turquoise hydrogen production technologies for commercialization.

Meeting #gasturbine demand: Since the first MW171 gas turbine, with a turbine inlet temperature of 732°C for Asahi Glass’s Chiba Plant in 1963, Mitsubishi Power has received orders of more than 1,660 gas turbines to customers around the world. The need for high-efficiency power generation, such as #GTCC, is increasing from environmental concerns. We will continue striving to contribute to the stable supply of electric power and environmental protection by developing gas turbines that fit the energy situation and meet environmental regulations of each country.

The Forefront of Hydrogen Power Generation 1 In November 2023, #MitsubishiPower successfully completed a 30% hydrogen co-firing test using a state-of-the-art 1,650 °C class JAC #gasturbine at the GTCC testing facility in Takasago Hydrogen Park. This is the world’s first demonstration using a fuel mixture of 30% hydrogen that is produced and stored at the same facility and connected to the local power grid. 100% hydrogen combustion tests for a small- and medium-sized gas turbines in an actual power plant have been started as well.

Gas Turbines in Depth – Raising thermal efficiency Gas turbine development is a challenge against “heat.” The higher the combustion temperature of the fuel injected into the turbine blades, the higher the power generation efficiency, which in turn reduces the amount of CO2 emitted per unit output. #MitsubishiPower began developing the 700°C class #gasturbine in 1963. Since then, we have achieved higher temperatures with the 1,250°C class, the 1,350°C class, the 1,500°C class, the 1,600°C class, and the 1,650°C class in 2020 that has achieved the world’s highest class of thermal efficiency, 64% efficiency. We are now aiming for 1,700°C class and 65% or higher efficiency. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gSRP8fde #EnergyTransition #MissionNetZero #PowerGeneration #GasTurbines

In honor of #CanadaDay, we would like to give a shout-out to Capital Power in Alberta. 🍁 By transitioning the Genesee Generating Station 1 & 2 from coal to natural gas, they are creating a new model for sustainable power generation to support the energy transition in Canada. Capital Power is focused on delivering reliable and affordable power today while building decarbonized power systems for tomorrow. 👏 🌟 Read the full case study here: https://bit.ly/3XNdgN0 #SustainableEnergy #EnergyTransition #MitsubishiPower

#MitsubishiPower is advancing next-generation energy technologies for decarbonization at two facilities in Japan. By collaborating closely between Takasago and Nagasaki, Mitsubishi Power aims to support the transition to a hydrogen society. 🔵Takasago Hydrogen Park (Takasago City, Hyogo Prefecture) This integrated facility is verifying technologies for hydrogen production, storage, and power generation for the rapid commercialization of #hydrogen #gasturbines. Hydrogen single-firing and co-firing are being tested in actual gas turbines for power generation to improve product reliability.      🔴Nagasaki Carbon Neutral Park (Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture) This facility is a base for technology development related to energy decarbonization, which is producing biomass fuel and developing ammonia firing technologies in addition to hydrogen production. Key technologies developed here are being used for demonstration of hydrogen production and hydrogen power generation at Takasago Hydrogen Park. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gRwTcKKH

Gas Turbine Assembly Shop – How is a #gasturbine assembled? About 65,000 parts go into a huge gas turbine with a total length of about 16m and a total weight of about 500 tons. The time to complete a turbine varies depending on the model, but it’s about a month for a team of five to six professionals. Even the slightest scratches can lead to serious accidents, so meticulous inspections are carried out before and after assembly, and assembly is done carefully to exacting standards, where variances are measured in microns.
