Rolls-Royce to deliver power stations to Bangladesh

Rolls-Royce Power Systems subsidiary Bergen Engines signed contracts for the delivery of two power stations to Bangladesh with a contract value of 133 million Euro. The consignments to Confidence Power Rangpur Limited are destined for a power station in Rangpur delivering an output of 112Megawatts. It will be supplied this year. A second, similar power station is set for delivery in 2018 as a further option. This 150MW power plant intended for Midland East Power Ltd will be located in Ashuganj. Within the contracts are also spare parts deliveries over 15 years.

Jeff Elliott, Managing Director at Bergen Engines comments, “Bergen Engines delivered its first Rolls-Royce genset engine to Bangladesh way back in 2001, and has since built power stations covering over 5 per cent of the country’s overall power supply. These new power plants represent a major step forward for us, and we are totally committed to doing our very best for our customers and, indeed, the whole country.”
