ALSTOM has won a turnkey EPC (engineering, procurement, construction)
contract for a second coal-fired power plant for Prony Energies, New
Caledonia.
The 50MWe unit, whose commercial operation is expected in January 2008, is of identical design to a first unit, awarded to ALSTOM last year, which will supply more than 35% of the islands installed capacity when it comes into operation in May 2007.
The second unit will fulfil the electricity requirements of the new Goro Nickel treatment plant located in Prony Bay, and will supplement electricity supply from the first power plant dedicated to the islands power grid.
ALSTOMs scope of supply includes one pulverised coal-fired boiler, associated machine room and electrical balance of plant.
