Recently, the two units manufactured by HE achieved good results again in the Turkish Zetas 2×660MW Super-critical Coal-fired Thermal Power Project Phase III contracted by HEI — an excellent power plant project responding to the “Belt and Road Initiative". The total generated power amount produced by the two units in 2017 was 9.512957 billion kWh. The power supply in 2017 was 8.9908938 billion kWh. The two units had operated for 354 days and 344 days respectively, with the maximum continuous operation period of 161 days and 142 days respectively. The operation data of the two units were all higher than those of the units in the same type in Turkey and the high quality and efficiency of "HE-made” units were proved once more.

The Turkish Zetas Coal-fired Thermal Power Project Phase III is the first iconic project in Turkey’s thermal power market signed by HEI on January 23, 2013, and it is also the first major project in the European market won by a Chinese EPC enterprise in the implementation process of the "Belt and Road Initiative" launched by China. The project has adopted the 660MW super-critical thermal power units manufactured by HE, with the wet flue gas desulphurization devices and the SCR denitration devices built at the same time. Besides, electric bag filters were employed, while the condenser adopted the open cycle cooling mode by using the seawater directly. After the project officially started in October 2014, the first generator unit was synchronized for power generation in June 2016, the "72+168" full load test run and commissioning for commercial operation were completed on July 20 and August 27, 2016, respectively. The TOC certificates for the two units were received in September 2016, and the completion certificate was obtained two months and a half ahead of schedule. This project has been recorded as the 2x600MW-level unit EPC project in Turkey with excellent quality completed in the shortest construction period, which made outstanding contributions to promoting China's "Belt and Road Initiative".

During the warranty period of the project, the Commissioning and Operation Center of HEI was responsible for the operation and maintenance of 660MW units for the first time. Throughout this period, adhering to the idea of “constructing a project and building a brand”, HEI implemented streamlined and standardized management, actively explored, carried out the equipment point inspection and conducted preventive maintenance and repair to ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment. So far, the Turkey Zetas Coal-fired Thermal Power Project Phase III has been operating well and all the indicators are higher than those of units of the same type. It has created great economic benefits for the Owner and won high praise from the Owner.
