Published: Apr 4, 2011
Alstom is to lead a consortium which will build Southeast Asia’s first 1000 MW supercritical coal fired power plant at Malaysia’s Manjung for EUR1bn ($1.4bn).
Alstom has signed a power plant contract worth the equivalent of over EUR650m with Tenaga Janamanjung Sdn Bhd to provide key power generation equipment for the plant.
The unit will be the single largest one in the region and will produce enough electricity to power nearly 2m households in Malaysia. The contract is booked in the first quarter of the fiscal year 2011/2012.
