PÖYRY PLC Press Release 5 June 2017 at 07:00 (CEST)
Global Luzon Energy Development Corporation (GLEDC) has awarded Pöyry with the
owner's engineer assignment for EPC selection for its supercritical power plant
in La Union, Luzon, Philippines.
The 2x300 megawatt coal-fired power plant project will contribute to the
stability in supply of electricity to the country by providing adequate and
reliable power to its customers, encompassing industrial, commercial and
domestic requirements. Such supercritical boilers operate at very high pressures
making it more efficient than standard power plants and directly leads to
reduction of costs and CO2 emissions.
GLEDC is a unit of Global Business Power Corporation (GBPC), one of the largest
independent power producers in the southern region of the Philippines. GBPC in
turn is part of the Metro Pacific Group.
Poyry, as GLEDC's project development partner, will deliver technical advisory
services to assist in developing a solid engineering, procurement and
construction (EPC) contract that will be cost-competitive and reliable.
"We are honored to have been chosen by GLEDC as a consultant for their first
thermal plant in Luzon," said Nicky Gemperle, president of Poyry Energy Inc.,
Philippines. "We assure GLEDC of Poyry's continued commitment and partnership as
they expand their operations," added Mr. Gemperle.
