Hc energia, a subsidiary of the EDPEnergias de Portugal group, has chosen ALSTOM to provide the engineering, supply, erection and commissioning of the plants along with long-term operation-supervision and maintenance services for the main power generation equipment within the plants.
One unit will be built at Castejon, Navarra, where hc energia has another ALSTOM GT26 combined cycle power plant, which has been in operation for over three years. The other unit will be built at Soto de Ribera, Asturias.
These new power plants will add 800MW to the capacity of the ALSTOM GT26 combined cycle power plant fleet in Spain, bringing the total to 4,000MW.
These latest awards in Spain follow other recent awards for GT26-based power plants: Modugno, awarded by Energia SpA in Italy; and Lingen awarded by RWE in Germany.
Patrick Kron, ALSTOMs Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said: This repeat award of a GT26-based power plant by hc energia clearly demonstrates their satisfaction with ALSTOM technology and the performance of ALSTOM in running the O&M contract. The outstanding performance of these turbines, our strong O&M experience and our ability to build an integrated power plant, is giving us the competitive edge in the European market.
