DESIGN BACKGROUND

Introduction

Economic growth of a country is dependent on the availability of energy. Since the

demand is constantly increasing, energy is imperative for the process of economic development

where some industrial plants require high energy consumption for production. Energy is produce

by utilization of natural resources; it can be either renewable or non-renewable energy.

Electricity is coupled for sustainable development and growth of an economy.

Philippines is a promising economy, when it comes to energy use and conventional fuels,

which is oil and gas, are the main source for the demand of energy. The country is bounded with

different sources of energy that can be converted to electricity. According to the types of fuels

being used, has different types of power plant, source of power can be a renewable and non-

renewable. A renewable power source plant comprises Wind Power Plant, Geothermal Power

Plant, Biomass Power Plant, Solar/Photovoltaic Power Plant, and Hydroelectric Power Plant.

However, taking into account of plants that uses Oil, Natural gas, Diesel, Coal and Oil it

considers as non-renewable power source.

Since the needs for electricity rise and fall throughout the day in response to a number of

things, including the time and environmental factors, storing electricity is critically essential. The

Philippines suffers from numerous unplanned electricity outages, or brown-outs, owing to the

insufficient and outdated power-generation infrastructure. One approach to managing electricity

demand is building more generation facilities that can be brought online to manage peaks.
 The renewable energy like the natural gas and oil can be utilized to meet the growing

energy demand. Construction of combined energy power plant is one way to properly harness the

energy in these natural resources. Combined power plant is known for its high efficiency in

converting the energy. Continuous innovation on energy related technology can further improved

the extraction of energy from these resources and thus producing more energy output.

Rationale of the Study

Province of Batangas, in itself, offers numerous opportunities and expansion, and over

the past years its robust growth is constantly improving. It has a total land area of 3,165.81

square kilometer and a total of 31 Municipalities and 1,078 barangays. Since the province is also

a host of various types of industrial establishment that create a big impact for its continuous

development, the needs of electricity are very crucial. Electricity is the most vital element that

sustains the progress of the province.

According the Department of Energy report in 2018, Luzon grid experienced yellow alert

because of the increasing demand of electricity. Yellow alert is issued when reserves are not

enough to cover the largest running generating unit at the time but does not necessarily lead to

power outages. However, some areas in Batangas and parts of Bataan still experienced rotational

brownout that last five hours because of manual load dropping. This is happened when the

reserved power thinned was unable to meet the required level to meet the consumer demand.

Since electricity demand is steadily escalating the evolution of new power plant are

needed. Given that Batangas is surrounded by bodies of water and it is near in Malampaya

natural gas pipeline it is a good place to build and develop a power plant that will supply most

part of Batangas and Bataan to prevent the power interruption.

2
 This brings up the design of a combined cycle power plant. The design project focused

on the combination of gas and steam turbine. A combined cycle power plants are highly

efficient, reliable, cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions to generate energy.

Compared with other conventional steam turbine plants the efficiency of combined cycle plant is

about 50-60% which is much higher than the steam or turbine plant; capital cost with

supplementary firing for combined cycle compared to simple gas plant is a little higher and of

the same capacity compared to steam turbine plant is much lower; the requirement for cooling

tower is much lower; self-sustained feature; has a high ratio of power output to the area

occupied; low maintenance. To increase the overall efficiency of electric power plants, multiple

processes can be combined to recover and utilize the residual heat energy in hot exhaust gases.

Distinctively, a combined-cycle power plant uses both a gas and a steam turbine or combining of

multiple thermodynamic cycles to generate power, where gas turbine generates electricity while

the waste heat from the gas turbine is used to make steam to generate additional electricity by

means of a steam turbine.

Current Energy Situation in the Philippines

Philippines is capable of generating a lot of energy from natural resources since it is a

tropical archipelago and its economy already shifted from agriculture to industry. Nowadays,

photo voltaic panels is very demand to the customers due to its cost efficiency. In fact,

Philippines already using renewable resources to meet the increasing demand of the consumers.

It is only a short period of time since more of the Filipino people recognize the benefits of

renewable energy and it can be an alternative for carbon and oil.

 According to the Department of Energy statistics as of 2017, the country recorded a total

peak demand of 13, 789 MW, which is 3.9 percent or 517 MW higher than the previous year.

The highest peak demand growth rate was in Mindanao with a total of 6.5 percent or 107 MW.

The total electricity consumption of 3.9 percent or 3,572,450 MWh grew from 90,797,891 MWh

in 2016 to 94,370,341 MWh in 2017. The overall growth rate of 1.1 percent was from the

increasing sector of residential and industrial. Associated with the residential sector expansion is

the increasing household electricity consumption, rising income per capita and the strengthening

of household electrification among others. And based on the National Accounts on 2017, a total

of 7.2 percent growth was established by industrial sector due to its expansion and public

construction.

Electricity sales and consumption in 2016 and 2017 is shown in figure1. It compromises

the sales and consumption in residential, commercial, industrial, own use, system loss and others.

In figure 1, sales and consumption of electricity in residential in 2016 is much higher than

in 2017 from 25,631,254 MWh to 26,782,033 MWh, commercial from 21,770,167 MWh it

increases in 2017 to 22,767,981 MWh, industrial it increases from 24,116,820 MWh of 2016 to

25,573,267 MWh of 2017, own use it decreases from 8,357,339 MWh of 2016 to 8,315,784

MWh of 2017, system loss also decreases from 8,288,045 MWh of 2016 to 8,261,747 MWh of

2017, and other consumption and sales in electricity, it increases from 2,634,266 MWh of 2016

to 2,669,529 MWh of 2017.

The total installed capacity of the country from 21,425 MW in 2016 to 22,730 MW in

2017 grew by 6.1 percent. Through the commercial operation of large coal-fired power plants

with a capacity of 630 MW in Luzon and Mindanao, solar farms in Luzon and Visayas with 127

MW capacity and additional from oil and hydro power plants of 78 MW capacity.

In addition to the supply, off-grid power plants established a total of 2 percent or 465

MW of the total installed capacity. In terms of fuel-type basis, coal share the largest amount of

installed capacity with a percentage of 36 or 8,049 MW, 31 percent of renewable energy which is

equivalent to 7,079 MW, oil-based at 18 percent or 4,153 MW and lastly, natural gas with 15

percent or 3,477 MW.

Summary of Newly Operational Capacities of 2016 and 2017 is shown in Figure 2. It

covers the power plant facility name such as coal, oil-based, natural gas, renewable energy like

geothermal, hydro, biomass, solar and wind.

Target Location

Locloc, Bauan, Batangas is the chosen location of the proposed 715 MW Combined

Cycle Power Plant for ease of electricity transmission to the target area to be supplied. Locloc,

Bauan, Batangas has a geographical coordinate at 13.7929° N and 120.9212° E. The desired

location is 123.3 km from Metro Manila with a total land area of 53.31 km2 (53.31 hectares)

accommodating a total population of 91,297 people as of 2015 (Wikipedia). The designated

location is chosen because the source of fuel, which is the natural gas, is taken from Malampaya

natural gas pipeline that snakes its way from off shore plant to the area of Batangas.

Figure 3 shows the Malampaya Natural Gas Pipeline as it traverses from the Malampaya

off shore plant to Batangas.

 The table above shows the projected load demand of First bay electric cooperative. This

shows that the peak demand falls on summer season which is in the month of May. It is the usual

month that utilizes the highest amount of energy sales. This cooperative contributes a much

lower energy demand than the other since it only holds one municipality with a total of 40

barangays. In this cooperative, a total of 24.472 MW is the possible demand of the consumers on

2035.

Peninsula Electric Cooperative projected load demand is shown in table 12. It covers the

forecast demand of the consumers from the present year up to 2035.

The main thrust of the project is to design a combined cycle power plant which has a

plant capacity of 715 MW located at Locloc, Bauan, Batangas. Specifically, this study aims to:

1. Create and provide a development layout of the proposed 715 MW combined cycle gas

turbine power plant taking into accounts of the following:

1.1 Energy Balance

1.2 Overall Efficiency

1.3 Work Output

2. Present the design calculations, plant layout, schematic and process flow diagrams, and

technical design specifications for the components used in the proposed design of the

combined cycle power plant.

2.1 Gas turbine

2.2 Heat Recovery Steam Generator

2.3 Steam turbine

3. Asses the economic feasibility of the chosen design options by calculating the

economic indicators:
 3.1 Payback Period
