Ansaldo Energia will supply turbomachinery and provide refurbishment services to a new 120 MW combined cycle plant in Servola. The plant includes an AE64.3A gas turbine. The supply includes the Ansaldo Energia Plant Optimizer management system. The plant, in combined-cycle configuration with a power of 120 MW, will be operational by the end of 2021.
Customer of the supply is Gruppo Arvedi, a European steel company.
"With this investment, the Arvedi Group enters the Italian Capacity Market for electricity supply, whose implementation decree was approved by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development in June 2019. The Capacity Market, in line with the situation in other European countries, aims to ensure the adequacy and safety of the national electricity system in the presence of a strong renewable component - non-dispatchable by its very nature - by encouraging investments in efficient, low-polluting and flexible plants," the company said in a press release.
