Montant BEI envisagé (montant approximatif)

Up to EUR 250 million.

Coût total (montant approximatif)

Approximately EUR 500 million (including construction of the CCGT as well as rehabilitation of existing generating capacity).

Aspects environnementaux

Due to its size and technical characteristics, the project requires an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) under EIB guidelines. The EIA process has been initiated and its review will form part of the Bank's appraisal of the project. The project is expected to contribute to meeting growing electricity demand with a lower environmental impact than other fossil fuel based alternatives.

Passation des marchés

The rehabilitation component of the project is expected to be procured under a number of separate works, supply and services contracts using mainly international tendering procedures. The new CCGT plant will be procured under a single Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract. CCGT plant procurement has been initiated by OGK-5 under RAO UES public procurement practices, and the procurement has been completed after privatisation of the company.
