Sultan Azlan Shah Power Station (TNB Janamanjung) Overview


TNB Janamanjung Sdn Bhd was incorporated in august 1996 to spearhead the design, development and management of the station which was to be coal-fired. This plan has introduced to reduce dependence on natural gas as fuel source for power generation. The power plant is design to operate within the world bank emission limits aimed at minimizing power plant impact on the environment.
The power plant is located on a 325 hectare wholly man made island off the lekir coast in manjung perak. The plant delivers 2100 MW of net power from 3 × 700 MW generators. Sultan Azlan Shah Power Station (TNB Janamanjung) comprises three identical power generation units with drum type boilers, 700MW axial flow turbines, and hydrogen and water cooled generators, these are supported by specialized mechanical and electrical equipment to ensure high availability and reliability.
The plant utilises imported coals as the main fuel with light fuel oil (LFO) for lighting-up, or when operating at low loads. Both bituminous and sub-bituminous coals are used, with the proprietary Flue Gas Desulphurisation being employed to ensure low SO2 emissions. The water used in the cooling and FGD processes is drawn from the sea.
The output of the plant is optimised for grid system flexibility, with the ability to participate in system frequency regulation, as is required under stipulations of the Malaysian Grid Code, and also in compliance with approved international standards.
