Brestanica Location: Slovenia Operator: Termoelektrarna Brestanica doo Configuration: 95-MW, 3+2 CCGT block with 5001P gas turbines, 2 X 114 MW GT11N2 gas turbines Fuel: natural gas, LFO Operation: 1943-2001 HRSG supplier: Biro T/G supplier: AEG, Siemens, Jugoturbina, Elin, ABB EPC: ABB, IBE dd Quick facts: Brestanica is in the valley running between the Sava River and Bohor in eastern Slovenia. For over 60yrs, it ran as a coal-fired station but when the nearby Senovo mine closed, it was decided to repower two steam sets with three gas turbines using gasoline and LFO, an arrangement then unique in Europe. These went online in 1975. In addition to peak energy supply, the station was designed to back-up the Krsko nuclear power station which started construction in 1974. Later, two larger gas-fired gas turbines were added and these were turned over on 12 Jul 2004.

Esch-sur-Alzette Location: Luxembourg Operator: Twinerg SA Configuration: 385-MW single-shaft CCGT with 9001FA gas turbine CHP Fuel: natural gas Operation: 2002 HRSG supplier: Alstom T/G supplier: Alstom EPC: Alstom, CDC Compagnie de Construction Sarl & Cie Secs Quick facts: In the mid-1980s, the government launched a feasibility study into building a CCGT plant in Luxembourg and, in Dec 1995, the government and Arbed formed a special-purpose entity to promote construction. Tractebel won the plant tender and then assigned the project to Electrabel, which created Twinerg on 28 Apr 1998. In Apr 1999, Arbed and Cegedel invested in the proejct which is owned as follows Electrabel (GDF Suez) 65%, Cegedel 17,5%, and Arbed 17.5%. In Dec 2001, the plant successfully completed its initial performance tests after 29mos of construction. First operation was on 7 May 2002 and the Twinerg plant opened on 15 Nov 2002.Steam is used for heating Eshh and is available for the Belval Industrial Park.
