The new JV, Shanghai Electric – SPX Engineering & Technologies (SEC-SPX JV), will provide air cooled condensers (ACC) to the Hami and Tianshan power plants in the country.
The partnership will also provide an indirect dry cooling tower (IDCT) to the Guojin power plant, and an indirect natural draft cooling system to the Junzheng Wuhai coal-fired power plant.
SPX Cooling Technologies (Zhangjiakou) will manufacture the ACC and IDCT bundles for the cooling towers.
SPX segment president Gene Lowe said the new orders highlighted the demand for SPX’s thermal products and services in China.
"As China’s energy infrastructure continues to expand, our goal is to deliver dry cooling products and services that help generate reliable power supplies through our joint venture with Shanghai Electric."
Located in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the Hami plant is a 2x660MW coal-fired power plant.
As per the deal, the JV will supply a whole ACC island, including two 8×8 modules for the plant.
