OFFICIALS of China’s top
power-producing company have presented to Cebu Gov. Hilario P. Davide III its
intention to build a 200-megawatt (MW) to 300-MW coal-fired power plant in the
province.
Yuwu Lee and Ruan Lin of China
Energy Engineering Group (CEEG) discussed in a meeting with Davide last week
the company’s track record in international power and infrastructure industries
with a capacity to build a power plant bigger than the Korean Electric Power
Co. (Kepco) in Naga City, Cebu.
CEEG, in its corporate profile, is
among the world’s largest comprehensive solutions providers for the power
industry. It is engaged in business segments of survey, design and consultancy,
construction and contracting, equipment manufacturing, civil explosives and
cement production, investment and other businesses.
Lin, CEEG vice president, said the
company is still in the initial stage and has yet to discuss the details of the
proposal.
He said more information will be
disclosed once they gathered the data of the energy situation and power needs
of Cebu. He added they are also looking for a favorable location for the power
plant.
“We are exploring the possibility to
develop a coal-fired power plant [here in Cebu] with a total capacity of 200 MW
to 300 MW depending on the technical design,” Lin said.
Davide welcomed the executives as he
expected the group to submit a more detailed proposal for the power generator
that could help mitigate the energy crisis in Cebu.
CEEG’s international power projects
include Chashma Nuclear Power Plant (1×300 MW) Project Phase 1 in Pakistan and
the EREN SC Coal-fired Power Plant (2×600 MW) Project in Turkey.
In 2015 CEEG’s revenue reportedly
reached RMB123,232.8 million.
