"ABB’s domain expertise in the power generation sector was key for winning this project," said Samir Brikho, head of ABB’s Power Systems division. "With a complete portfolio for the electrical balance of plant we are a leading system and component supplier to power plants."

ABB電力系統(tǒng)部主管Samir Brikho表示：“ABB在發(fā)電領(lǐng)域的絕對技術(shù)優(yōu)勢是贏得這個(gè)合同的關(guān)鍵。通過對發(fā)電站電力平衡的完整組合，我們是領(lǐng)先的發(fā)電站系統(tǒng)和組件供應(yīng)商。”

The power station, designed to produce 550 megawatts of electricity and 40 million gallons of water from a desalination plant, will be operated for 25 years by Qatar General Electricity & Water Corp., known locally as Kahramaa. The contract is scheduled to be completed next February, in time to meet peak demand for water and electricity during the Gulf state’s arid summer.

該發(fā)電站的設(shè)計(jì)發(fā)電量為550兆瓦特，以及生產(chǎn)來自一個(gè)脫鹽工廠的四千萬加侖的淡水，這個(gè)發(fā)電站將由在當(dāng)?shù)乇蝗朔Q為Kahramaa的卡塔爾通用水電公司運(yùn)營25年。該項(xiàng)目計(jì)劃在明年二月份完工，以及時(shí)滿足這個(gè)海灣國家的干旱夏天對水電的極度需求。

ABB has won earlier contracts at a neighboring plant, including an order for the installation of instruments for turbines. Electricity generation in Qatar more than doubled in the decade through 2004 and water production has increased 60 percent, fueled by economic growth.

ABB在早前曾贏得了附近一個(gè)工廠的合同，包括一個(gè)渦輪所用儀器的安裝合同。為了經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的需要，在2004年，卡塔爾的發(fā)電量在過去的十年里翻了一番，而淡水產(chǎn)量也增加了60% 。
