17MW MORE FOR THE POWER PLANT OF VARREUX
(Haiti Libre) -
The Société Générale d'Enérgie S.A. (Sogener), Haiti's first private power generation company, [established in 2002], has placed an important order of equipment to allow the extension of the power plant of Varreux. This new equipment will allow the addition of 17MW to the existing power generation capacity of the plant, which will ease the power shortage in Haiti, whose network has only just under 200 MW...
The company, Wärtsilä Power Plants, a leading global supplier of power plant solutions, and main supplier of diesel power plants and services to the Caribbean islands, won the tender, for the supply of two 20-cylinder Wärtsilä 32 generator sets together with auxiliaries, engineering, and supervision of the installation. The engines will be delivered during 2012 on a fast-track basis, and the new power generating facilities are scheduled to be fully operational by early 2013.
"Wärtsilä’s ability to respond to this need with a fast-track delivery, as well as the efficiency and reliability of the engines themselves, were key reasons for Wärtsilä winning this contract," says Sampo Suvisaari, General Manager, Central America and the Caribbean, Wärtsilä Power Plants.
