Commissioning of the plant is scheduled in December 2021.

Once completed, the new facility is expected to help strengthen the power grid’s reliability and stability.

Siemens Gas and Power Europe power generation and CIS head Olaf Kreyenberg said: “This third order in a period of three months underscores the enormous trust that Belarus places in our technology and our capabilities.

“Our flexible and reliable gas turbines are helping bring about the transition to a new and sustainable energy mix around the world.”
