The Above 300 MW segment consists of large coal, nuclear, or natural gas fired power plants, with gas turbines and steam turbines as the prime movers. The segment caters mainly to the utilities, district heating & cooling end-users. The segment is expected to be driven by the rising adoption of natural gas fired power generation in the Asia Pacific region, particularly in China and South Korea. The phasing out of coal-based power generation has given rise to large-scale natural gas-fired cogeneration plants. The rapid demand for heat and steam in industries and requirement of municipal district heating & cooling is driving the growth in this segment. The shale gas boom in North America is another driving factor for growth in this segment, with utility-scale natural gas fired power plants being set up in the region.

The 6,000MW Zaporizhye Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), located in Energodar in the south-eastern part of Ukraine, is the biggest nuclear power plant in Europe and the fifth biggest in the world.
