Eastern Power Limited Begins Construction of $240 Million Greenfield South Combined-Cycle Project

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Greenfield South Power Corporation, a subsidiary of Eastern Power Limited (Toronto, Ontario), has began construction of the estimated $240 million, 280-megawatt (MW) Greenfield South Power Project in Mississauga, Ontario.

Construction for the project began earlier this fall and is slated for commercial operation by the summer of 2012. The project will consist of constructing a single one-on-one, combined-cycle power block, which will feature a 170-MW, natural gas-fired General Electric (NYSE:GE) (Fairfield, Connecticut) MS7001FA combustion turbine; a Nooter/Eriksen duct-fired heat-recovery steam generator; and a single, 110-MW, Fuji steam-turbine generator. Process water for the project will be taken from the municipal water supply system. Natural gas will be supplied by the existing infrastructure in the area.

When operational, the plant will be connected to Hydro One's 230-kilovolt (kV) circuit L24CR to feed power into the Ontario electricity system, which is administered by the Independent Electricity System Operator. The total output capacity of the project will be sold to Ontario Power Authority (OPA) under a 20-year Clean Energy Supply Agreement.

Alberici Construction Incorporated (St. Louis, Missouri) will provide the turnkey engineering, procurement and construction services for the project throughout construction.
