Project Description
The project involves the construction of a 758 MW natural-gas-fuelled, combined-cycle power plant in Sherman, Texas.
Panda has designed the Sherman generating station as a ‘quick-start’ power plant.
Power generation is expected to start within ten minutes of start-up, reaching full gas turbine power production within about 30 minutes.
The plant will use the latest, most advanced emissions-control technology, making it one of the cleanest, most efficient natural-gas-fuelled power plants in the US.
