[Basic Information]
Thermal Power Research Institute (“TPRI” in short) is a research organization in the field of thermal power engineering in China. It is directly under the administration of different Chinese government ministries for years in history. It is now controlled by the five major Chinese independent power generation groups, which were created after the power sector restructuring in 2002.
[Background]
TPRI has been actively involved in key R&D projects funded by the
government authorities, such as the National Development and Reform Commission
(NDRC), the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST). Its major R&D
efforts are devoted to thermal power generation technologies and equipments,
mainly to thermal power plant operation, automation and information management,
clean coal power generation, new power generation and renewable power
generation technologies. It is capable of providing technical and economic
solutions to power plant operation optimization, pollutants reduction and
equipment life extension.
