Punj Lloyd Wins EPC Contract
for Indian Reactors. Engineering,
procurement, and construction (EPC)
company Punj Lloyd Group on June 13
said it had won a 6.78 billion rupees
($150 million) EPC nuclear power contract
from India's state-owned Nuclear
Power Corp. of India Ltd. for critical
nuclear piping at four 700-MW pressurized
heavy water reactors. Two of the
four reactors are located at the Kakrapara
Atomic Power Project (KAPP 3 and
4) near Surat in Gujarat and the other
two are at Rajasthan Atomic Power
Project (RAPP 7 and 8) near Kota in Rajasthan.
The contract is scheduled to
be completed in four years. India's government
wants to expand the country's
nuclear capacity from the current 4,385
MW to 63,000 MW by 2032.
South Korean Firm Commits
$3B to " Green " Coal Plant; Foster
Wheeler to Supply CFB Generators.
Korea Southern Co. on June 10
announced it would spend 3.2 trillion
won ($2.96 billion) to build and begin
testing of two Advanced Thermal Power
Plant-1000 (ATP-1000) model turbines
(1,000 MW) at Samcheok Green Power
Plant by December 2015. The plant is
designed to use low-grade coal and includes
a carbon capture and storage system,
and a closed-loop cooling system.
The plant's power output is expected to
be increased to 5,000 MW by 2020.
Switzerland-based Foster Wheeler in
early June said a subsidiary of its Global
Power Group received limited notice
to proceed from Hyundai Engineering
and Construction for the design and
supply of four 550-MW supercritical
circulating fluidized-bed (CFB) steam

mixed with biomass while meeting all
environmental regulatory requirements.
Solar-Gas Hybrid Plant Is Australia's
Flagship Solar Project. The Solar
Dawn solar thermal project owned
by a consortium consisting of AREVA
Solar, CS Energy, and Wind Prospect
CWP was this June selected as the preferred
solar thermal project in Round
1 of the Australian government's Solar
August 2011 | POWER
Flagships Program.
The 250-MW solar thermal-gas hybrid
power plant, located in South
West Queensland, will combine Solar's
Compact Linear Fresnel Reflector solar
thermal technology with a gas boiler
backup system, so that it will be able
to deliver power around the clock.
The Australian Commonwealth and
Queensland governments will contribute
AU$464 million (US$484 million)
and AU$75 million ($78 million), respectively,
to the project. The consortium
will now work closely with key
government and commercial stakeholders
to finalize permitting and financing
arrangements, as well as engineering,
procurement, construction, operation
and maintenance contracts, by the end
of 2011. ■
