NIIGATA Power Systems Co., Ltd.
Four 6500kVA emergency gas turbines were shipped as the emergency power-generating equipment for new construction of the Korean NH’s National Computing & Information Agency
NIIGATA Power Systems Co., Ltd., (hereinafter referred to as “NPS”) received an order of and shipped four NGT3B-T light oil-powered emergency gas turbines (6500 kVA) for the Korean NH’s National Computing & Information Agency. NGT3B-T is the largest gas turbine in the world that complies with the activation in 40 seconds (*1).
(*1) The activation in 40 seconds : Requirement for emergency power generating equipment stipulated by the Japanese Fire Service Act.
This project is for NH’s Internet Data Center (hereinafter referred to
as “IDC”) (of ten stories aboveground and two underground stories)
amounting to 91,570 m2 in total floor space that is newly constructed in
Uiwang City, Gyeonggi Province, Korea. Securing electric power is one of
the important factors for the IDC in operating systems, and our gas
turbines are used as emergency power sources.
GnCenergy in Korea (hereinafter referred to as “GnC”), which is the
prime contractor for this project, has a record of having delivered many
internal-combustion engines as the No. 1 manufacturer in the emergency
power generating equipment market in Korea and entered into a packager
contract for gas turbines with us in January 2015. In this project, GnC
integrated power generators, enclosures, and NPS gas turbines as a
package for power generating equipment and succeeded in receiving an
order.
Although diesel engine-powered emergency power generation equipment is
used in most IDCs in Korea at present, gas turbines offer significant
advantages as follows:
- (1) Light in weight
- (2) Space-saving
- (3) Air-cooled (No water supply facility is required for cooling)
- (4) High-frequency sound enables easy noise isolation
NPS offers a wide variety of engine power generating equipment that support many kinds of fuels, such as gas turbines, diesel engines, gas engines, light and heavy oils and gas, and will also continue to develop active operating activities in overseas markets.
