The consortium formed by ENKA’s 100% owned subsidiary Entrade GmbH and Siemens Energy Global GmbH & Co. KG signed a contract with the Ministry of Electricity of Iraq for the construction of a 921.8 MW natural gas CCPP in Nasiriyah, Iraq.
The plant is expected to become operational on July 31, 2029.
The plant will be constructed on a lump sum turnkey basis and the scope of the consortium includes EPCC works for the power plant to have a safe and reliable operation in accordance with EPC contract terms.
The project is based on a power island configuration for two Siemens SGT5-4000F gas turbines, one SST5-5000 steam turbine, three air-cooled generators SGen5-2000P for steam & gas turbines, and two drum type heat recovery steam generators. In addition to power block equipment, air cooled condenser, 132 kV gas insulated switchgear, step-up transformers and other BoP mechanical and electrical equipment will also be provided.
The gas turbines are capable of using only natural gas and H2 as an optional future source.
