Description
This dataset represents the facility construction, equipment installation, decommissioning and dismantling of an average technological natural gas-fired power plant. The average technology is characterized based on a weighted combination of datasets for simple cycle and combined cycle types. The technical service life of the power plant is 40 years, with a unit capacity of ~265 MW. The data are primarily derived from official statistics.
Activity Description
The system boundary includes raw material preparation, on-site construction and installation, as well as decommissioning and dismantling phases, but excludes the operation and maintenance phase.
Process Description
Natural gas power plants are facilities that use natural gas as fuel for electricity generation, mainly including two technology types: simple cycle and combined cycle.

Technology comment
The natural gas-fired power plant mainly include two technology types: simple cycle and combined cycle. The national installed capacity ratio of these two technologies refers to the document released by the National Energy Administration in 2020, indicating that the installed capacity of gas turbine combined cycle nationwide will reach 55 million kW.
