Name and Location
Cap des Biches heavy-fuel oil-fired combined-cycle thermal power plant, Rufisque, Senegal.
Client
Contour Global Cap des Biches, a wholly owned subsidiary of ContourGlobal.
Project Description
The project proposes the design, construction and operation of a 53 MW heavy-fuel oil-fired combined-cycle thermal power plant.
The project will comprise three 16.5 MW combustion engines, each with a 3.5 MW combined-cycle/heat-recovery system and a 500-m-long transmission line connecting the power plant to an existing adjacent substation.
The new power plant will be built on a 3 ha plot to the east of a defunct Senegalese power generation facility operated from 2000 to 2013. The project will use the fuel storage tanks installed for the defunct power plant. The electricity will be sold independently for 20 years within the framework of a power purchase agreement signed with Senelec.
Value
The project is estimated at €90-million.
