Three important projects awarded to SENER
The international engineering and technology group SENER whose Barcelona offices are located in the Barcelona Synchrotron Park, has been recently awarded three important projects.
The joint venture of SENER and AFCONS has recently signed an EPC contract with H-Energy Gateway Private limited (HEGPL), a Hiranandani Group Company, for turnkey engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of its LNG storage and re-gasification project in Jaigad, Maharashtra. The capacity of the plant is 8 million tons per annum and facility construction is set to commence from mid this year.
The engineering and technology group SENER has also been awarded the contract for the Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS/GNC) on the space probe Euclid. This award makes SENER the prime contractor for this AOCS subsystem that requires the highest level of performance, and for a European Space Agency (ESA) mission of utmost scientific importance providing further confirmation of the company’s leading position in highly complex AOCS/GNC systems for the science-technology market.
Finally, SENER and ACCIONA together form the consortium chosen to develop the turnkey project of the Kathu solar thermal plant, South Africa. This complex is led by GDF SUEZ with South African partners with a forecast investment of more than EUR 500 million. It is a 100 MW plant with parabolic troughs designed and patented by SENER and a thermal energy storage capacity of 4.5 hours, thanks to the use of molten salts. The plant will begin operations in 2018 and will be able to supply electricity to 80,000 homes.
