Alstom will supply engineering, procurement and construction services, along with an Alstom GT13E2 gas turbine with an air-cooled turbogenerator, a heat recovery steam generator, a distributed control system, the electrical balance of plant and all the interconnection steam pipework for the project.
The cogeneration plant will supply electricity for aluminium production, as well as steam to boost electricity output at three other existing Alstom-built power plants located at the same site: the Kestrel, Condor 1 and Condor 2 power plants. It will also supply steam to boost water production at DUBAL's existing seawater desalination plant.

The contract reinforces Alstom's partnership with DUBAL, following Alstom's construction of the ‘CCPP 22' 430 MW gas-fired combined-cycle power plant, also based on GT13E2 gas turbines, in 2006.

Philippe Joubert, president of Alstom's power systems sector, said, "DUBAL has renewed its confidence in Alstom after the completion of a first 430 MW power plant. This environmentally-friendly and fuel saving cogeneration is an additional significant contribution to DUBAL's power supply for aluminium production."
