Siemens Energy and Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) presided over by Dr. Jochen Eickholt, Executive Board Member of Siemens Energy AG, and Mr. HeeBong Chae, President and CEO of KOGAS. This formally marks the start of a strategic alliance for the green hydrogen production and hydrogen turbine power generation.

Siemens has won a significant order from Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) in India to overhaul 18 units of RT48S & RT56 power turbines of Siemens fleet of aeroderivative gas turbines driven by Industrial AVON & Industrial RB211 gas generators along with installation and commissioning services. The turbines are operating at Mumbai High Asset and Neelam & Heera Asset of ONGC in Mumbai.

• India's first electricity link featuring voltage-sourced converter technology in commercial operation
• First hybrid application of DC-XLPE cable and overhead transmission line 
• Total system of two links allows electricity exchange of up to 2,000 megawatts to meet country’s power deficits 

The joint venture of Siemens Energy and Sumitomo Electric has completed connecting India’s first high-voltage direct current (HVDC) link featuring voltage-sourced converter (VSC) and DC-XLPE cable technology. The 2,000 megawatts (MW) electricity transmission system consists of two converter stations, that are connected via two links comprising DC-XLPE cable and overhead transmission line. It enables the power exchange between Pugalur in the southern state of Tamil Nadu and Trichur in Kerala State in South-West India and supports transmission operator Power Grid Corporation of India (PGCIL) to counter power deficit in India’s southern region and improve the grid stability. Siemens Energy supplied the two converter stations for the ±320 kilovolt (kV) HVDC system while Sumitomo Electric was responsible for the XLPE HVDC cable system in the DC circuit.

• Successful remote outage for a NPP in Sendai, Japan – the first worldwide for Siemens Energy
• Demonstrates the project team’s commitment and dedication in ensuring that customer’s needs are met despite the time-zone difference
• Underscores the strengths of digitalization backed by real-time technical support when on-site assistance could not be rendered due to COVID-19 travel ban

The first remote outage was successfully performed and completed for 2 units of an 890MW SendaiNPP in Japan together with Marubeni Utility Services, which is a partner of Siemens Energy in Japan’snuclear industry while Siemens Energy Japan provides strong support from Sendai. As SiemensEnergy is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), the project team was entrusted to supervisethe inspections performed by Nishinippon Plant Engineering and Construction Co Ltd, a subsidiary ofKyushu Electric Power Co Inc, for two units of the LP Turbine. The works involved assembling anddisassembling the turbines under close supervision, fact-finding inspection and remoterecommissioning including vibration assessment during shut down and restart. Remote balancinghas been duly planned but was not needed during restart due to the good vibration behavior of theturbine.
