Turbine And Other Equipment Are Part Of The Capacity Expansion Project Of The Parnaíba Thermoelectric Power Plant In Maranhão

The signing of a US$ 100 million contract with the Italian-Argentine Techint has just been announced by GE Power, GE’s subsidiary for power generation.
The contract is for the supply of a steam turbine, four heat recovery boilers, a condenser, and valves for the expansion of the Parnaíba thermoelectric power plant, owned by Eneva, in Maranhão, by 385 megawatts (MW), which will increase the plant’s installed capacity to 1.4 GW.

The Parnaíba thermoelectric complex, in Maranhão, is operated by Eneva, and its expansion was contracted in the A-6 auction held in August last year, with the start of operation scheduled for January 2024.
The new equipment to be supplied by GE will complete the “cycle” of the Parnaíba I power plant, which was inaugurated in 2013, and marks the beginning of Parnaíba V, that is, it will increase generation capacity without additional gas consumption.

GE is focusing on the expansion of the thermoelectric generation sector in Brazil, but it also has its focal point in Brazil in the gas market.
According to the company, the increase in gas supply is essential for economic growth and will involve high investments from major companies in the sector.
