Polish electric utility company PGNiG Termika has officially started construction of a new 490MWe combined-cycle power plant (CCPP) at the Żerań CHP Plant in Warsaw.
The new plant is being constructed in partnership with a consortium involving Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems, Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Europe, and Polimex-Mostostal.
Construction is set to be undertaken though an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) route. The plant will be equipped with an F-class gas turbine with a heat recovery steam generator and a steam turbine.
Intended to replace the coal-fired boilers at the Żerań CHP plant, the new generating unit will enable an increase of electricity generation by around 80%.
MHPS Europe CEO Satoshi Uchida said: “With Żerań, we are introducing MHPS’s excellent gas turbines and CCPP technology to the Polish market.
