Where are the natural gas power plants located across the country?

The Qinghai Oilfield has a natural gas power plant in Golmud. Also, there are many power plants in Guangzhou that generate electricity using imported natural gas. The cost of natural gas power plants is relatively lower than that of conventional thermal power plants, as natural gas is relatively inexpensive ； Natural gas is relatively clean and does not pollute the environment!

There are many of them, and they can be divided into two categories: one category consists of power plants along the pipeline for transporting gas from the west to the east, and the other category consists of LNG-fired power plants. There are about twenty such plants of Class F, and over thirty of Class E. The power plant in Golmud is of Class E. LS brother said that there might be some discrepancies in this information. The cost of natural gas is high, and the supply of gas is unstable; therefore, natural gas-fired power plants rely on environmental protection subsidies provided by various provinces in order to avoid losses or minimize them.

Upstairs, where are the gas turbines used in natural gas power plants usually located? Where were the design and supply for the receiving station and pipelines of the Dalian LNG project? Thank you

I can only answer the first question. Mitsubishi, Siemens, GE

There is an LNG power plant in Daya Bay, Huizhou, Guangdong, which has been in operation for many years. The specific technology is not clear to me; I think gas turbines are likely the preferred equipment for this type of power plant.

CNOOC operates several LNG power plants along the southeastern coast, in provinces such as Guangdong and Fujian.

CNOOC has natural gas power plants in Sanya and Yangpu, Hainan, and may build more in other areas of Hainan as well!

1. Based on equivalent calorific value estimates, natural gas power generation can tolerate low gas prices; in other words, its efficiency is low, unless it is used as a peak-shaving power plant. 2. In accordance with the National Development and Reform Commission’s \"Natural Gas Utilization Policy\", 1) users of distributed cogeneration and combined heat, power, and cooling systems are considered priority users (mainly for residential heating and cooling needs) ； 2) In areas with important electrical load centers and sufficient natural gas supply, the construction of natural gas-based peak-shaving power generation projects is permitted ； 3) Projects for constructing natural gas-powered generation facilities at non-essential power consumption centers are classified as restricted ； 4) The construction of base-load gas-fired power generation projects in the regions where thirteen large coal production bases are located, including Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Anhui, etc., is prohibited.

Natural gas power plants are mainly located in coastal areas. At present, LNG receiving stations are being built in Guangdong, Fujian, Shanghai, Qingdao and other places. This liquefied natural gas comes from abroad, from gas fields in Australia, Indonesia and other countries. Apart from supplying gas to the residents of coastal cities, the majority of this liquefied natural gas is used in power plants, including those in Daya Bay in Guangdong, Yangpu and Jinjiang in Fujian.

So what are the prospects for natural gas power generation?

Our plant’s thermal power station operates in conjunction with the refining facilities, using the excess dry gas from the refinery as fuel, and the results are quite good
