Facilitating plant upgrades
We have the experience and expertise to deliver complete packages to upgrade, repair, or rehabilitate power plants.
First, we conduct technical plant surveys, assessments, budgets and feasibility studies to evaluate the viability of prospective upgrade projects.
If we find an upgrade project to be feasible, we can help identify project financing sources.
We deliver a broad range of upgrades, lifetime extension and rehabilitation measures in partial or full turnkey basis:
Retrofit
