Finnish company Wartsila has won a contract to deliver power generation equipment to upgrade an existing power plant in Egypt, according to a Meed report.
According to the report, the National Electricity Technology Company in Egypt, also known as Kahraba, is planning to upgrade the Borg el-Arab power plant by 20W with this new contract.
The plant is currently working with four Wartsila 34SG engines running on natural gas.
Wartsila will also upgrade the existing 40MW power plant with the latest generation control system, the report added.
“Industrial growth is vital to the region’s economic development, and a reliable power supply is essential for driving this growth,” said Magdi el-Badry, Kahraba chairman and managing director.
