The first double-rotor thermoelectric generator completes test operation

China's first 350-megawatt double-rotor thermoelectric generator has completed 168 hours of test operations in northeast China, company sources said Sunday.

The generator was produced by Harbin Turbine Company, a branch of Harbin Electric Corporation, one of the largest manufacturers of power plant equipment in China.

It features stronger heating supply capacity and more efficient energy use for its double-rotor design, said Guo Pengfei, a researcher at Harbin Turbine.

The generator is expected to replace more than 200 coal-burning boilers.
