China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC) will install General Electric?s (GE) ecomagination-qualified Jenbacher cogeneration systems at a new data center being built in the Chinese district of Changping.

The new power facility, which will be powered by five GE's 3.34MW units, will be the first cogeneration plant built in China that will meet on-site cooling and heating requirements of the data center.

The 16.7MW combined cooling and heating power plant (CCHP) is part of the China-based CNPC's initiative to expand its network of remote data centers.

In addition to supporting the regional grid, the power facility will offer a total efficiency of up to 85% to minimize the energy costs of the data center.

Beijing Gas Energy Investment Company is the owner and operator of the power plant, which was approved by China's National Energy Administration Bureau.

BGEIC general manager Zhao Jianwei commented, "Our Changping data center equipment has specific power requirements, which is why we selected GE's cogeneration technology that has a proven record of reliability around the world."

Delivery of the Jenbacher units is scheduled for April 2013, while commercial start-up is expected by the end of 2013.
