"The H class technology has proven its capability in commercial operation."

The PCP can generate approximately 1,220MW of power and up to 1,480t per hour of steam for the Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC), which is Petronas’ mega development in Pengerang, Southern Johor, Malaysia.

Expected to be one of the largest and most efficient gas-fired power plants in the nation, the PCP will also supply power to the National Grid for public consumption while the remaining co-generation units will supply PIC’s facilities.

The PCP’s first co-generation unit is slated to go online by mid-2017.

Petronas vice infrastructure & utilities president Pramod Kumar Karunakaran said, "With the PCP, Petronas will not only be supplying reliable steam and power to petrochemicals plant and other facilities in PIC, but we will also be able to supply to the Malaysian Grid in an environmentally-friendly manner."
