PowerGen CHP is to build a 140 MW combined heat and power (CHP) plant at Winnington, Cheshire. The plant, which will supply process steam to a local factory, is due to be commissioned next year.

The turnkey project will be carried out by Alstom under a $166 million contract. The plant will comprise two 40 MW gas turbines and one 60 MW back pressure steam turbine as well as two heat recovery steam generators and three auxiliary boiler packages.
