By GlobalDataAdditionally, CCPP will be equipped with a system that functions as a cogeneration facility and supplies electricity and steam as per the demand from surrounding factories.
The power plant is slated to commence its operations in 2020.
In April this year, Kawasaki carried out reorganisation and combined its divisions, which works on energy system development, design, and manufacture with the plant engineering division to enhance energy-related business and promote synergy effects.
The company said that the demand for the electrical power consumption worldwide is expected to increase in the coming years, especially in Southeast Asia.
This global consumption in turn is increasing the demand for high-efficiency gas-fired thermal power plants, according to the company.
