BEIJING -- China's first home-grown 110-megawatt heavy-duty gas turbine, the Taihang 110, rolled off the assembly line at a turbine facility on Monday and is bound for commercial delivery.

The rollout ushers in the commercial operation of the country's most powerful home-grown gas turbine, according to Aero Engine Corporation of China.
