With a total installed capacity of 1,465 MW, it generates 30% of Bulgaria’s electricity. Commissioned in 1966, the plant is undergoing extensive rehabilitation to improve safety, equipment availability and reliability throughout the expected lifetime of the plant. In addition, the installation of flue gas desulfurization facilities will reduce SO2 and dust emissions and improve environmental performance, to ensure plant operation is in compliance with EU environmental regulations.
WorleyParsons is providing consultancy services to the owner for the rehabilitation of units 1 to 6 and for the construction of flue gas desulfurization facilities for units 1 to 4. Program management activities include consultancy services on environmental protection, risk control and management and the control of equipment factory acceptance tests, quality management, construction supervision and a variety of specialist consulting services.
WorleyParsons has been instrumental in optimizing the project schedule to reduce implementation delays. The recommendations issued by our site team have also assisted the owner to analyze project documentation and manage its ongoing relationship with the project’s associated suppliers and contractors.
