Borneo, Indonesia - 7 Megawatts, Gas Turbine One of the largest Ammonia processing plants in the world experienced an onsite generator failure and as such required emergency power generation in order to re-start their facility. APR supplied a single Transportable Tempest Generating System which was air freighted by Antonov into Asia. The equipment was assembled and ready to run within 4 days of arrival on site.
Ontario, Canada - 20 Megawatts, Gas Turbine 20MW of Tempest Gas Turbine generation in Ontario, Canada, The installation and commissioning timeline from the customer for Ontario was only 16 days from arrival of the three gas turbine generating sets on site. This represented an incredible challenge to APR’s execution team and also tested the rapid start-up capabilities of the Transportable Tempest. All three Tempests were installed and ready to run within 7 days of arrival on site. This site was developed as a peaking plant to help ensure the Ontario region of Canada had a reliable source of power during the winter months.
Mexico - 100MW – Gas Turbines A 100MW gas fired power solution in Mexico, which required the full turnkey gas turbine project to be online in only 40 days. APR, along with ALSTOM Power Mexico and ALSTOM’s Transmission and Distribution business in Mexico, worked together to design, engineer and ultimately develop this 100MW temporary power plant. This project incorporated 23 mobile gas turbine generating sets, a gas fuel system, all civil works and an extensive HV system.
Lahore Region, Pakistan- 136MW – Gas Turbines WAPDA, the electrical utility for the Lahore region of Pakistan, signed a contract with APR for the delivery of a 136MW gas fired temporary power project. The 36 month contract for the reliable supply of electricity to WAPDA’s 132kV grid was to be based upon three 50MW aero-derivative gas turbine generating sets. APR would supply the full turnkey solution into Pakistan and operate and maintain the equipment in order to provide WAPDA with reliable and efficient electricity. The turnkey scope was particularly extensive in this case and included equipment such as gas compressors, demineralized water plant and a 132kV substation.
Pampa Melchorita, Peru- 20MW – Gas Turbines APR supplied the three Transportable Tempest Gas Turbine Generating Sets to CB&I Peru, to provide reliable power to the installation and commissioning camp for the new Pampa Melchorita LNG facility. The equipment will be operational for a 36-48 month term and in this case training is being provided to enable CB&I to be responsible for all ongoing operation and maintenance. The 3 Tempest solution provided the operational flexibility required for this project. The electrical demand will steadily increase as construction activities ramp up on site and will eventually reach a total of 20MW.
Tallahassee, FL USA- 50MW – Gas Turbines The City of Tallahassee inquired about the installation of up to 100MW of temporary power to support summer peaking. Due to unforeseen circumstances relating to their existing generation capacity, they were evaluating the possibility of temporary power to securitize the supply to the Tallahassee area. The decision was finally made to enter into a contract with APR for 50MW of gas fired generation, with an option to expand with an additional 50MW at a later date. The turnkey solution was operational within 30 days
Argentina- 50MW – Diesel Power Modules A 50MW contract to supply 2 sites in Argentina with fast track power plants was signed with a government owned Energy Company. The electricity is being provided by diesel power modules at a voltage of 13.2kV into the customer’s substations in Formosa and Saenz Pena in north eastern Argentina. The project has a 36 month term and is required to support the increased demand for power during the summer and winter months in this region. Again, APR supplied a full turnkey solution will all manpower required to complete the installation within 60 days and the comprehensive ongoing operation and maintenance service.
Barranca, Costa Rica - 90MW – Diesel Power Modules APR signed a contract with I.C.E, the national electrical utility in Costa Rica, for the fast track supply of a 90MW turnkey power solution to be operational for a period of 18 months. The power plant was based upon multiple diesel power modules coupled with step up transformers to supply electricity at 34.5kV directly into the customer’s substation in Barranca, in north western Costa Rica. APR was also responsible for the installation of the entire fuel system including fuel storage tanks as well as a complex control and monitoring system to communicate directly with the local electricity dispatch centre. APR provided all manpower to complete the installation and commissioning as well as ongoing operation and maintenance of the equipment.
Port-au-Prince, Haiti - 50MW – Diesel Power Modules 34MW of diesel generation in Haiti based upon Diesel Power Modules. APR took only 30 days for the installation of the generating equipment along with the fuel system, step-up transformers and HV switchgear and interconnects. APR also installed an advanced site control and monitoring system, which would enable digital communication with the site via satellite uplink. Later an additional 20MW of emergency power was ordered by the Haitian Government, which was required to be operational as quickly as possible. Once again, APR was to be responsible for the full turnkey supply, including the location of suitable site in the Port-au-Prince area. This contract made APR the largest independent generating entity in Haiti providing over 50MW.
Sri Lanka - 40MW – Diesel Power Modules A 6 month temporary power contract with the Ceylon Electricity Board for the supply of a full turnkey 40MW power plant based upon diesel power modules. The installation and commissioning of the turnkey power plant what achieved within a 30 day timeframe. The APR operation and maintenance team will ensure optimum availability and efficiency is sustained throughout the contract term.
Mwanza, Tanzania - 40MW – Diesel Power Modules TANESCO, the National Electrical Utility of Tanzania, placed an order for a 40MW fast track turnkey solution to be located in Mwanza on the shores of Lake Victoria about 500 miles North West of Dar es Salaam. Due to the low rainfall and the high dependence on hydro power in this region, it was necessary for TANESCO to pursue a temporary power solution to ensure a reliable supply of electricity to this area. APR mobilized and delivered the diesel fired power solution in two 20MW phases; the first phase was air-freighted and operational in only 20 days and the second phase in the following 70 days meeting with the 90 day contractual timeline. APR was then responsible for all ongoing operation and maintenance support throughout the 12 month contract duration.
Emergency Power, Haiti – 20MW – Diesel Power Modules This project required a temporary power solution for 24 months to provide its locations in Haiti with 100% reliable power. After a very lengthy bidding and evaluation process APR was successful in contracting for this service. APR Energy’ various power locations provide support for the rehabilitation of the country through a very dynamic and flexible contract with the customer. This is a very comprehensive contract which includes all infrastructure required to deliver 100% availability of power as well as manpower and supply of fuel to the sites. APR simply sells the customer kWhrs on a monthly basis at each of its locations.
