Firm powers ahead with expansion

Shanghai Electric aims to become key supplier for Chinese energy projects abroad, reports Cecily Liu in London.

Shanghai Electric, a power-generation equipment and machinery maker, is launching an aggressive overseas expansion strategy, to ride the wave created by Chinese energy firms.

Already present in more than 20 countries and regions, the company hopes to further expand in developed markets and become part of the supply chain for Chinese energy companies that are increasingly taking on global projects, said Zhou Xiaoming, brand manager of the company.
