It's evident that Alstom-GE has a huge footprint in the power generation business.

From gas to wind, our customers can choose from a portfolio of products covering all fuel types, the broadest in the industry.
In design, manufacture, procurement, construction and servicing, we have been setting the benchmark in clean, efficient, flexible and integrated power generation solutions for over a century.

Our constant quest for innovation has enabled us to achieve a number of global power generation milestones:

Constructing the largest commercial-scale geothermal plant in the world, totaling 191MW in Wairakei, New Zealand - now in continuous operation for over 50 years
Providing key equipment for the world’s two largest hydro-power plants: 14,000MW Itaipu in Brazil and 18,200MW Three Gorges dam in China
Delivering 69x3MW ECO 100 and 6x1.67MW ECO 74 wind turbines totaling 217MW for Europe’s largest onshore wind farm, Whitelee in Scotland
Producing the power island for the most efficient steam power plant in Europe, the 910MW RDK8 coal-fired power plant in Karlsruhe, Germany
Supplying the steam turbine island and the first wet flue gas desulphurisation system in South Africa, able to remove more than 90% of the sulphur oxide generated at Kusile (4,794MW) - the most environmentally-friendly steam power plant on the sub-Saharan continent
Powering Southeast Asia’s first 1,000MW supercritical steam power plant at Manjung, Malaysia - in addition to the existing three units of 700MW each
Installing the world’s first facility to both capture and store carbon dioxide (CO2) from a coal-fired power plant at the American Electric Power station Mountaineer, in West Virginia
Supplying equipment for the world’s largest co-fired biomass plant, the UK’s 4,000MW Drax station
Completing the largest water and power project in the Middle East with the 1,650MW Fujairah power plant in the United Arab Emirates
Delivering the most efficient fossil-fired power station in Australia, the gas-powered Tallawarra at 435MW
Building the world’s largest nuclear steam turbine in operation at the 1,550MW Chooz and Civaux power plants in France
Engineering and procuring the steam turbine island for China’s first European Pressurised Reactor (EPR) for nuclear power plant Taishan 1& 2, totaling 3,500MW

Mantra is dipping its toe into a mighty big power pool. Hope it can make a difference. Along with Alstom-GE we shall be waiting for a new benchmark.
