Consortium with Budimex to build power unit at Turów Power Plant
July 10, 2014 A consortium of companies: Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Europe GmbH (consortium leader with 55.38% shares), Budimex SA (consortium partner with 22.31% shares) and Tecnicas Reunidas SA (consortium partner with 22.31% shares) signed a contract with PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna SA with its registered office in Bełchatów for the construction of a new power unit at the Turów Power Plant.
The contract covers the construction of a new power unit with a net electrical capacity of 450 MWe (megawatt of electrical capacity), including the installation of a flow-through boiler for supercritical steam parameters, a condensing turbine with a generator and a wet flue gas desulphurization system.
The net value of the contract is PLN 3 billion 250 million, of which Budimex accounts for PLN 725 million net.
The execution of the works will begin after the contracting authority issues an order to start the works. The consortium has 56 months to complete the work.
The scope of Budimex’s work includes:
- designing
- construction and assembly works along with the supply of steel structures,
- delivery and installation of the electrical part and installation of control and measurement equipment and automation,
- construction of a cooling system with the use of a cooling tower with a purified flue gas discharge system,
- installation of the ash removal and slag removal system,
- other supplies and works in the field of auxiliary farms.
After the design stage, disassembly, demolition and interchange works, Budimex will commence construction works, i.e.: excavations and foundations. The implementation of this contract will not affect this year’s financial results of the company, which results from the specificity of the works planned for this year.
Budimex is interested in the implementation of further energy contracts. It closely analyzes planned investments and participates in about 10 tender procedures in the field of energy. Therefore, the company also plans to increase the employment of specialists in the energy sector.
