Daily News Egypt interviewed Emad Ghaly, CEO of Siemens Egypt, to talk about the updates and progress of the company’s power plants in Egypt.
What are the latest updates of your three power plants—Burullus, New Administrative Capital, and Beni Suef—in Egypt?
Step by step, we are moving forward towards a fundamental increase in Egypt′s electricity production. We are working at a fast pace to help the Egyptian people overcome power shortages as soon as possible. The goal is to start the first power plant in Beni Suef in December, while Burullus and the New Administrative Capital are expected to run in January 2017. Currently, all three gas-fired power plants are under construction. We are working together with our local partners Elsewedy Electric and Orascom Construction. As of July 2016, 50.8% of the Beni Suef project was completed with more than 5,000 workers on-site. Burullus is 46.2% complete with more than 6,000 workers on-site, and 34.4% of the New Administrative Capital project was established with 3,000 workers.
We are constantly ramping up manpower at the construction sites. As for the equipment, already 11 H-class gas turbines are being delivered to Egypt, together with all related auxiliaries and generators.
New Capital: All heavy equipment like gas turbines, generators, and transformers are delivered by vessels to Sokhna or Adabiya ports, and transported by truck to the site. The main challenges are the weight, dimensions, and the quantities of material to be handled in a very short time. Also, the availability of transport means has to be very well organised, given the amount of mega projects that are currently being simultaneously executed in Egypt.
Burullus: All heavy equipment, like gas turbines, generators, transformers, and heat recovery steam generator modules are delivered by coaster vessels to the Burullus port. Respective enhancement works of the port’s infrastructure are progressing as scheduled. General cargo is delivered via Alexandria port to the Burullus project site. The challenge is the vast amount of shipments and quantities to be transported and managed in a very limited time period.
Beni Suef: All heavy equipment, such as gas turbines, generators, and transformers are delivered by vessel to Sokhna or Adabiya ports, and transported by truck from there to the site. The main challenge lies in the quantity of deliverables in such a short time. The transport equipment is well organised to cope with the situation.
