Aggreko power for SA, Mozambique
Aggreko, along with its joint-venture partner Shanduka Group, has officially opened and delivered power from its 107.5 MW interim gas-fired power plant at Gigawatt Park in Ressano Garcia, Mozambique. The project is the result of a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) that Aggreko have signed with Electricidade de Mo?ambique (EDM), the Mozambique power utility and with Eskom, the South African power utility. The project will produce 107.5 MW of power to supply base load and peak power to both companies until July 2014. The power plant is situated in Ressano Garcia on the Mozambique / South African border, at Gigawatt Park. This is a ground-breaking project by a private company to supply fast-track, cross-border power to two utilities in Southern Africa.
