Romanian company borrows EUR 14 mln for energy project in Egypt
State-owned lender EximBank has granted the local company Romelectro a multi-level financing facility of EUR 14 million for a EUR 30 million project that the contractor will carry out in Egypt together with two other Romanian firms.
Within this project, Romelectro is consortium leader for installing and commissioning a 1,200 MW unit at a combined cycle gas power plant in Burullus, Egypt.
The project is part of a wide program of the Egyptian authorities to increase the electricity production capacities. The country wants to build three greenfield thermal power plants.
German group Siemens provides the equipment within a USD 9 billion contract. Romelectro has subcontracted a part of the works related to installing a 1,200 MW power unit.
