Doosan Enerbility has been speeding up its push into the North American combined-cycle power market, signing back-to-back supply contracts after winning its first steam turbine order in North America in March.
Doosan Enerbility said on the 27th that it signed a supply contract with U.S. corporations for four 370-megawatt (MW)-class steam turbines and four generators. The contracted equipment is scheduled to be delivered sequentially to the Texas region of the United States through 2029.
A steam turbine is a combined-cycle power facility that produces additional electricity by using waste heat from a gas turbine. It increases energy efficiency and helps ensure stable power supply.
In North America, demand is rising for high-efficiency combined-cycle power due to the expansion of data centers, growing industrial power needs, and replacement of aging power facilities.
Son Seung-woo, head of the Power Services BG at Doosan Enerbility, said, "Following the first North American steam turbine order in March, we also signed an additional supply contract, once again confirming the competitiveness of Doosan turbines in the North American market," and added, "With this project as a starting point, we will further expand touchpoints with local customers and partners and move to secure additional business opportunities in the North American market."
