This project will reportedly be Suez’s first combined cycle power plant in France and its second GT26-based power plant in Europe after the contract signed in the Netherlands for the Flevocentrale project.
It will also be the third GT26 combined cycle power plant constructed by Alstom in France, following two contracts signed with Gaz de France for Dunkerque in 2002 and Fos-sur-Mer in 2006.
Under the terms of the contract, Alstom will provide all engineering, procurement and construction services to deliver a fully integrated plant composed of one GT26 combined cycle unit integrating Alstom’s in-house core plant components.
The core plant components will include one GT26 gas turbine, one ST15c steam turbine, one Topgas generator, one heat recovery steam generator and an Alspa distributed control system.
Alstom has also been awarded a frame agreement in the form of a 17-year long-term parts and repair agreement, covering all parts and services necessary for the scheduled maintenance of the gas turbine.
