Jenbacher gas engines provide half of peak load power Grand Indonesia Shopping Town Jakarta, Indonesia GE's Distributed Power technology creates flexible, efficient, low-emissions power PT Grand Indonesia manages Grand Indonesia Shopping Town (GIST), a magnificent, multi-use complex of retail shops, offices, and hotel and apartment lodgings in Jakarta, Indonesia. To obtain the 27.8 MVA of electricity it needs to operate, the mall must burn more than 560,000 cubic meters of fuel each month — which means that the utility spends about 50 percent of its operational expenses for fuel and electricity. Instead of resorting to prohibitively expensive power generation from engines that burn other available fuels, Grand Indonesia Shopping Town chose a much more cost-effective option: GE's Jenbacher gas engines. In 2007, six Jenbacher J620 gas engines, each with a 2.7 MW power output, were installed at Grand Indonesia Shopping Town to operate during peak hours. From 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., Distributed Power technology supplies half of the complex's peak load power. And in case of a blackout, the engines can run in island mode and provide base load. Grand Indonesia Shopping Town also has posted impressive environmental protection achievements. In 2011, it won the Platinum Award for Green Building Certification, and in 2012, it won the Energy ASEAN award, in large part because the Jenbacher gas engines reduced CO2 emissions by more than 50 percent compared to the mall's emissions if connected to the grid.

Customer advantages • Costs much less than engines burning other available fuels • Reduces CO2 emissions by more than 12,744,000 kg per year • Provides 50 percent of peak load [ • Produces flexible, reliable power Key technical data Number of units and engine type 6 x Jenbacher 620 gas engines „We feel that the benefit of Distributed Power from GE is that it's a faster, more flexible and more reliable power solution to cover our total peak load during peak hours." „Indeed, Jenbacher gas engines have proven to be much more efficient than alternative engines. Since electricity tariffs are high...
