GE have announced an order from AE Energia for fast, digital power in Angola. The order
includes seven TM2500 mobile aeroderivative gas turbine generator sets, services agreements
and digital solutions for PRODEL, the state-owned company responsible for power production.
The TM2500 units will be installed in Namibe, Huila and Cuando Cubango provinces and will
be capable of providing the remaining 200 megawatts (MW) of power for the government
to achieve a targeted one gigawatt (GW) of electricity by end of 2018. The announcement
comes on the heels of AE Energia and GE’s ongoing work together at the Soyo 750 MW
combined cycle power plant, as well as six units of GE’s 2016 TM2500 project in Angola being
connected to the grid earlier in April.
