Additionally, MHPS will provide technical support for the manufacturing process as well.
Dongfang Electric is a leading state-owned company, based in Sichuan, under the oversight of China's central government. Dongfang Turbine Co., Ltd. a Dongfang Electric group company is one of the country's key manufacturers of heavy electrical equipment, and as a licensee of MHPS, the company has to-date received orders for more than 70 large-scale gas turbines. In March, 2018 MHPS established MHPS Chengdu Innovation Center in the city of Chengdu-Sichuan's capital-in order to strengthen collaboration with Dongfang Electric. The Innovation Center is now jointly proposing solutions and providing support for both new constructions and replacement of local power generation facilities with DEC as well supporting local procurement of DEC. Furthermore, through Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Dongfang Gas Turbine (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd., a joint venture established in 2004, MHPS and Dongfang Turbine are providing after-sale services enabling swift response to local customer needs.
Going forward, in close partnership with Dongfang Electric group, MHPS will strive to expand its share in China's growing gas turbine market. In doing so, it will strive to enhance China's energy efficiency, ease environmental burdens, and promote local economic and industrial development.
