Bilfinger Berger Power Services is to design, produce, build and commission the piping systems for two new blocks at the Westfalen coal-fired power plant in Hamm. The client is RWE Power AG and the order volume is €140 million.
The new blocks, each with a capacity of 800 megawatts, will achieve an efficiency rate of 46 percent. Commencing in 2011, they will replace two outdated 160 megawatt plants. The two new coal-fired blocks are the most modern of their kind.
