Strengthen the Strategy Driving to Develop the High-end Market

With the CPC Central Committee’s efforts to speed up "Going Global" strategy and proposal of the Belt and Road Initiative, HEI identified clearer thought to develop the international market. It actively gave play to the leading role of international pioneers and main force of the Group, comprehensively implemented the three-step strategy of “going out, going into it and going up”, cooperated with brother enterprises in overseas markets and brought Harbin Electric’s units abroad. Facing increasingly fierce competition in overseas markets, HEI has always held the strategic focus, enhanced the strategic execution and realized the progressive development.

In the process of going out, relying on the products independently researched and developed by HE and HE’s world-leading technical strength, HEI has very well completed its contracted overseas projects and they have been praised widely. HEI has constantly accumulated good reputation and brand notability internationally.

In the process of going deeply into the local markets, HEI made painstaking efforts to develop overseas markets, gradually expanded its overseas market network layout, and followed a well-designed plan to increase overseas branches in key regional markets and emerging markets, forming the largest overseas marketing network of the sector consisting of "overseas commercial representative offices, overseas subsidiaries (branches) and overseas 4S after-sales service centers".

The HEI-contracted Pakistan Bhikki 1180MW Combined Cycle Power Station Project and Balloki 1223MW Combined Cycle Power Station Project are completely EPC-based turnkey projects, both of which are large gas-fired power generation projects developed by the Pakistan government. The two projects are equipped with 9HA gas turbines manufactured by GE. 9HA gas turbines, with the world’s largest capacity, the highest efficiency and the most advanced technology, were first used in the power station in the world and the first 9HA gas turbine in Asia was used in Bhikki Project. Bhikki Project was started on September 22, 2015 and Balloki Project on November 2, 2015. It took only 17 months and a half from when 1# gas turbine of Bhikki Project was started to when it was synchronized, setting a world record in the field of the heavy-duty gas turbine power station construction. Balloki Project has set a series of world records in terms of installation and commissioning of the H-class gas turbine. For example, 1# gas turbine successfully passed the performance test and completed the commercial operation declaration (COD) on August 13, 2017. It only took 104 days to finish the installation and commissioning of the 9H gas turbine, while the average cycle of installation and commissioning would be about 180 days under normal conditions. Previously, the shortest cycle of installation and commissioning of the 9H gas turbine was about 120 days. Therefore, Balloki Project sets a new record in terms of the shortest cycle of installation and commissioning of the 9H gas turbine, providing a perfect demonstration of “China Speed”. Meanwhile, in the 168h reliability run test, 2# gas turbine of Balloki Project generated net electricity of 397MW, far more than the contract guaranteed output of 380MW, which fully demonstrated HEI’s brand value of “Give Priority to Quality and Keep Improving”.
