Through our joint venture Shanghai Electric-SPX, SPG Dry Cooling supplied W-Style® Air-Cooled Condensers for the Qassim 1 and Taiba 1 combined cycle plants. These are the largest ACCs in the world, with 80 fans of 38 ft per condenser, serving 1,800 MW per plant. Instead of water, they condense steam with ambient air in a closed loop. In one of the driest regions on earth, that means reliable power without using a single drop of cooling water.

We’re proud to share that SPG Dry Cooling, through our joint venture Shanghai Electric-SPX Engineering Technology, has supplied W-Style® Induced Air-Cooled Condensers for the Qassim 1 and Taiba 1 combined cycle power plants in Saudi Arabia. With a total plant output of 1,800 MW each, with 80 fans (38 ft in diameter) per condenser, these are the largest air-cooled condensers in the Kingdom and worldwide. Saudi Arabia aims to generate around half of its electricity from renewables by 2030. The other half will come from efficient gas-fired combined cycle plants, which keep the grid reliable as more solar and wind come online. But that doesn’t mean these plants can’t be sustainable too. That’s where dry cooling makes the difference. Our W-Style® ACC is designed for hot, arid regions like Al-Qassim and Taiba. They efficiently condense steam using ambient air in a closed-loop system, without using a single drop of cooling water. In a country where fresh water is scarce, it’s a better way to produce power while preserving one of the world’s most valuable resources. A big thank you to our colleagues at Shanghai Electric-SPX and to everyone involved in making these projects happen. #SPGDryCooling #ShanghaiElectric #ACWA #SEPCO3 #AirCooledCondenser #DryCooling #CombinedCycle #PowerGeneration #SaudiArabia #Vision2030 #WaterSaving

SPG Dry Cooling is proud to have supplied the cooling system for the new KEBAG Enova Emmenspitz waste incineration plant in Zuchwil, Switzerland. Our A-Frame Air Cooled Condenser was designed to integrate seamlessly with the building's architecture, contributing to a facility that reads as an architectural masterpiece rather than a conventional industrial plant, proof that no challenge, technical or architectural, is too big for our team. The facility integrates the largest façade-mounted photovoltaic system in Switzerland, combining waste-to-energy generation with solar power in a single installation. The plant will process approximately 220,000 tons of waste annually, with a thermal output of up to 50 MW, supplying electricity to around 42,000 households and district heating to 20,000 more. We are proud to contribute our dry cooling technology to a project that combines energy recovery, solar integration, and architectural ambition, enabling a sustainable power plant that operates without using a single drop of water for cooling. #SPGDryCooling #WasteToEnergy #EnergyTransition #Sustainability #DryCooling
