The works will be financed by the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB) under the “Projet de Soutient à l’Exploitation Durable du Réseau Electrique de Péligre” (SEDUREP) (Project to Support Sustainable Operation of the Péligre Electricity Network (SEDUREP). The contracted works, expected to be completed within three months of contract award, according to the procurement notice published on the IADB’s website, will entail the:
(i) repair of Group P1 following the damage that occurred in April 2020;
(ii) carrying out all tests and activities, allowing its return to operation after more than two years of being out of service; and,
(iii) the assessment of other potential impacts following this incident, including maintenance and repair recommendations for sustainable operability of Group P1.
The incident in April 2020 is not specified, although the IADB refers to an “electrical issue inside the wheel-alternator assembly.”
The plant, which came online in 1971, accounts for around 14 per cent of the Caribbean nation’s installed power capacity, the bulk of which comes from oil and diesel-fired generation.
