EPC Firms Bechtel, Fluor, Black & Veatch and SNC-Lavalin Active in Mid-Atlantic NGCC Market
SUGAR LAND--October 28, 2015--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Private-equity player Panda Power Funds (Dallas, Texas) expanded its power footprint in the Mid-Atlantic region this summer when it began building a grassroot, natural gas combined-cycle (NGCC) generator in Loudoun County, Virginia. The Mid-Atlantic region has an estimated 20,000 MW of coal-fired generation that has been closed, or is scheduled to close, to meet tougher emissions rules from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This has pushed developers like Panda and utilities like Virginia Power to build new gas-fired generation.
