| Turbine technology 1700 MW of HL will replace coal in Romania
Siemens Energy and independent power producer Mass Global Energy Rom SRl have signed a contract for the supply of HL-class gas turbine technology for the Mintia combined cycle power plant in Romania. With a maximum power generation efficiency of more than 64%, the plant will be the most efficient gas-fired power plant in Romania and one of the most efficient gas-fired plants in Europe. It will have an installed generating capacity of 1700 MW and will replace a retired coal-fired power plant.
“This project is a prime example of how the determination of policy-makers, private

investors, and technology providers can make a significant difference in accelerating the energy transition while also balancing the energy trilemma. Our latest HL-class gas turbine technology in combined cycle configuration will replace the capacity of the old coal-fired Mintia power plant and slash CO2
emissions by more than 50 percent when completed,” said Karim Amin, member of the executive board of Siemens Energy. “With our first project in Europe, we’re building one of the most modern and environmentally friendly gas-fired power plants,” said Ahmad Ismail Saleh, owner of Mass Global Energy Rom SRl. “It’s not only a strategic investment in the Romanian energy sector, the new

power plant will mark the beginning of the decarbonisation of the region’s former coal- fired power generation with planned simple cycle operation
by the first half of May 2025 and combined cycle completion in the first quarter of 2026.” The new plant will be fired with domestic natural gas.
The Siemens Energy scope of supply includes two SGT5-9000HL gas turbines with associated generators, an SST5-5000 steam turbine with SGen-3000W generator, and an SPPA-T3000 control system.
In the 50 Hz market, it is Siemens Energy’s first HL-class power plant in a 2x1 multi-shaft configuration.
The plant will be located at the existing Mintia power plant site about seven km from Deva in the Transylvania region.
