| Shaw awarded contract for new power plant in Virginia Shaw Group has been awarded an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract by Dominion for a new 585 MW electricity generating plant in southwest Virginia. The new plant will incorporate clean coal technologies and two circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers supplying steam to a single steam turbine generator. The EPC contract will be executed in two phases. The first phase involves design optimization, engineering, major equipment selection, and finalization of the project cost estimate. Upon a successful development phase and necessary state and regulatory approvals, Shaw expects to continue with the second phase, including all of the engineering, procurement, and construction activities. Based on current projections, the new facility would be in commercial operation by the summer of 2012. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
