阿爾斯通與國有事業(yè)單位Eskom簽訂了一個價值13億歐元的合同，為位于南非約翰內斯堡東部Mpumalanga省4,740 MW的燃煤發(fā)電站提供關鍵性設備。這個合同是繼阿爾斯通于2007年11月贏得為位于Limpopo省Medupi燃煤發(fā)電站提供設備合同的另一個合同。 在此合同條款下，阿爾斯通將提供6個790MW的蒸汽渦輪機和用在Bravo電廠中非常關鍵的渦輪發(fā)電機組裝包。合同要求提供6個帶有渦輪發(fā)電機的蒸汽渦輪機，6個空氣冷凝器和相關的輔助設備，以及關聯(lián)設施，試運轉服務。此合同將被登記在2008/2009財政年度上半年。 阿爾斯通執(zhí)行副總裁兼阿爾斯通電力系統(tǒng)總裁Philippe Joubert說：“由于此合同，阿爾斯能將再一次有可能為Eskom的擴展做出重要貢獻。我們的設備將被應用在南非現(xiàn)存的80％的發(fā)電站中。” 從20世界90年代，南非已經經歷了快速的經濟增長，從折射在電力需求上的增長就可可見一斑。作為回應，Eskom已經開始了提高全國電力應用的安裝計劃，阿爾斯通已經成為其首選提供商。 在2006年10月，阿爾斯通就已經贏得了重整2,100 MW Arnot燃煤發(fā)電廠的合同，為其增加一個額外的300 MW電力設備。阿爾斯通還為Grootvlei 和Komati兩個球磨廠提供服務，為其提供2,161 MW的電力設備。 [FONT=times] original text [/FONT] [font=times] Alstom signs second major contract with Eskom for coal-fired power plant in South Africa [/font] [font=times][Color=#708090]Alstom has signed a contract worth more than 1.3 billion euros with state-owned utility Eskom to provide key equipments for a 4,740 MW coal-fired power station located in Mpumalanga province, east of Johannesburg, South Africa. This is the second major agreement within a few months between the two companies after Alstom was awarded a similar contract for the Medupi coal-fired power station, located in the north-eastern province of Limpopo, in November 2007. Under the terms of this contract, Alstom will provide six 790 MW steam turbine and turbogenerator packages for the supercritical pulverized coal-fired Bravo power plant The contract comprises 6 steam turbines with 6 turbogenerators, 6 air-cooled condensers and the related auxiliary equipment, as well as all associated erection and commissioning services. The contract will be booked in the first half of the fiscal year 2008/2009. “Thanks to this contract, Alstom will again be able to make an important contribution to Eskom’s capital expansion programme to increase generation capacity”” said Philippe Joubert, Executive Vice-President of Alstom and President of Alstom Power Systems. “Our equipment is being used in about 80% of existing power stations in South Africa, providing us with crucial local experience.” Since the end of the 1990s, South Africa has experienced rapid economic growth reflected in growing power demand. In response, Eskom has started a programme to increase the country’s installed capacity and Alstom has been selected as the supplier of choice. In October 2006, Alstom had won a contract to refurbish the 2,100 MW Arnot coal-fired power plant, adding an extra 300 MW to its power output by December 2010. Alstom is also returning to service two mothballed plants, Grootvlei and Komati, which together will add an additional 2,161 MW to the grid by 2010. [/color][/font]
