On April 9th, 2026, the Self-Contained Power Plant project of Myanmar Golden Mountain Cement Co., Ltd., contracted by Sinoma Energy Conservation Ltd., received the Provisional Acceptance Certificate (PAC) from the owner. This certificate is not only an authoritative recognition of the project’s technology and engineering quality, but also the highest praise for Sinoma Energy Conservation Ltd.’s commitment to a “customer-centered” approach.
This project is the first biomass-fired power plant under Myanmar Golden Mountain Group. It fully adopts Chinese equipment and standards, with an installed capacity of 20.7MW. All the electricity generated is used to supply power to Golden Mountain’s two cement production lines, with surplus electricity sent to the Myanmar national grid. Under severe power shortage conditions in Myanmar, the project provides a strong power guarantee for Golden Mountain’s cement production.
Overcoming Difficulties: Achieving “Sinoma Speed” Under Extreme Conditions
Construction began on April 15, 2023. The project faced multiple challenges, including strict import licensing in Myanmar, extremely tight China-Myanmar shipping schedules, and persistent high temperatures and heavy rainfall. In the face of these obstacles, the project team always adhered to a “customer-centered” principle, scientifically planning and dynamically adjusting schedules, breaking down seemingly impossible tasks into executable milestones.
During construction, Myanmar experienced political instability and armed conflicts, followed by floods and typhoons. Despite the complex social security and natural environment risks, all members of the project team remained united, raised their awareness, and with a high sense of responsibility, ensured the project continued to advance amidst the turmoil.
On February 21st, 2025, the power station was successfully synchronized to the grid, marking a smooth transition from construction to operation.
Earthquake: A Test of Resilience and Dedication
On March 28, 2025, a powerful 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck Mandalay, Myanmar. The power station, which had been operating for just over a month, was immediately at risk of damage. At this critical moment, the Sinoma Energy Conservation project team did not retreat. They quickly formed a professional repair team, braving frequent aftershocks and potential secondary disasters, and rushed to the site without hesitation to inspect damage and organize repairs. The project completed post-earthquake restoration on May 30, 2025, and the unit was restarted and reconnected to the grid, achieving the fastest post-earthquake repair and restart of any power station in Myanmar.
After the restart, at the request of the Myanmar government, all electricity generated by the station was sent to the national grid to support disaster relief efforts, contributing greatly to post-disaster reconstruction and earning high praise from local authorities.
It was this spirit of “customer first, life first” that enabled the power station to quickly resume operation after the earthquake, minimizing the owner’s losses and laying a solid foundation for the successful passing of the PAC acceptance.
PAC Certificate: A Hard-Earned Badge of Trust
The awarding of the PAC certificate signifies the owner’s high recognition of the power station’s performance, safety, operational stability, and Sinoma Energy Conservation’s contract performance capability. It is both a summary of the arduous efforts made and a new starting point for long-term cooperation.
