This major expansion programme is likely to commence in 2007 and will include planning for the replacement of ageing plant and work towards meeting the island's forecasted increase in demand for electricity up to 2025 and beyond.Initially, the Mott MacDonald Pettit team will be involved with BELCO in assessing Bermuda's regulatory frameworks and proposing changes in line with anticipated environmental legislation as well as assessing the existing site layout at Pembroke to see how it can be expanded to meet the level of growth and retirement of plant predicted. Using these assessments, the team will also help to develop a masterplan which takes into consideration existing and new fuel, lube oil storage facilities, waste treatment plant and cooling facilities. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
