Foster Wheeler Awarded Low NOx Burner in Spain
Foster Wheeler AG announced today that a subsidiary of its Global Power Group has been awarded a contract to design and supply a Low NOx Burner System for the Spanish utility company ENDESA. The Low NOx Burner System will be integrated in the Compostilla Power Plant, Unit 3 (330 MWe) located in Ponferrada, León, Spain.
Foster Wheeler has received a full notice to proceed on this contract. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed, and the contract value will be included in the company's fourth quarter 2009 bookings. Commercial operation is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2010.
This Low NOx Burner System is the third awarded to Foster Wheeler by ENDESA for the Compostilla Power Plant (after Units 4 & 5). When Unit 3 reaches full operation, all three operating units at the facility will be capable of operating at NOx levels below the most restrictive emission levels according to local regulation and with fly ash of sufficient quality to permit the plant to sell this waste product to local cement producers.
This is the twelfth Low NOx Burner System awarded to Foster Wheeler by ENDESA in recent years, providing for NOx emission reductions throughout the ENDESA utility network in Spain.
