GCL-Poly is China’s leading cogeneration operator. With strong growth of Chinese economy, our cogeneration business has experienced rapid development in the past decade. Currently we have 18 subsidiary and associated cogeneration plants, with aggregate installed capacity of 1,044 MW and extraction capacity of 2,239 tonnes per hour.
Different from cogeneration plants that mainly meet residential heat demand, our cogeneration plants are mostly located within various industrial parks in China’s developed areas, delivering steam to nearby industrial and commercial users.
Our cogeneration plants use various fuels. We have 2 gas-fired cogeneration plants, 8 coal-fired cogeneration plants, 6 resources comprehensive utilization (RCU) cogeneration plants, which utilize coal sludge, gangues and sludge from sewage disposal, as well as 2 biomass cogeneration plants that are fuelled by crop straws.
Beside cogeneration, we also participate in solid waste incineration power generation and wind power generation, owning 1 incineration plant and 1 wind farm.
Being efficient, environmentally friendly, clean or renewable, all our power plants are promoted and encouraged, therefore enjoying higher on-grid tariff, higher utilization hours, higher dispatch priority, exclusive rights to sell steam within the heat zone of a cogeneration plant and preferential tax treatments.
