Beijing, June 18, 2009 - GEA received an order to design, manufacture and
supply an Air Cooled Condenser for the 1200 MW Guijao II coal fired power
plant in the Shanxi province in China. The order will be executed until
2010 and has a value of more than EUR 22 million. The Air Cooled Condenser
will be equipped with ALEX Air Cooled Condenser bundles which will be
manufactured at GEA's factory in Langfang/China. Due to their lightweight
construction and the fact that no cooling water is used, GEA's ALEX Air
Cooled Condenser technology represents an economically and ecologically
sustainable solution.

environmentally friendly power plant cooling systems in China,' says Jürg
Oleas, CEO of GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft, who is also responsible for
GEA's Energy and Farm Technology Segment. 'It also shows, that China
continues its ambitious power plant building program despite the current
economic situation. '
