Centrax Gains More Powergen Sales in France
Share:
Centrax, the leading UK power generation packaging specialist, has expanded its major presence in the French power generation market with the sale of three more gas turbine packages.
Two CX501-KB7 units have been ordered by DALKIA. One is for the Omnitherm district heating plant in Valence, near Lyon, where the new 5.2MW package is replacing two existing KB7s that have been in service since 2000 and have reached the end of their 12-year EdF contract. The second unit will equip the GieEvry district heating plant in the south-west of Paris, replacing a Turbomeca TM5000 that Centrax has maintained for the past seven years.
The second French customer to select the CX501-KB7 is the energy company COFELY. Its new KB7 is destined for the Chambery plant of gypsum producer Placoplatre, where it will be used for direct drying of gypsum. It replaces a TM5000 with 12 years of past service.
Centrax will deliver all three units this summer for installation and commissioning in time for the start of the French winter heating season on November 1.
