two major projects

PowerChina Argentina Branch signed a contract for the IBARETA 100MW photovoltaic power plant project in Formosa Province with Argentina's Formosa Provincial Resources and Energy Corporation. The IBARETA 100MW Photovoltaic Power Plant Project in Formosa Province, Argentina is located in IBARETA City, Formosa Province, 206 kilometers away from the provincial capital city. The main construction content includes the design, supply, construction, installation and commissioning of a 100MW installed photovoltaic power station and the wiring work with an existing substation.

At the signing ceremony, Daniel Marcos Maric, President of Formosa Province Resources and Energy Corporation of Argentina, expressed full confidence in the cooperation with PowerChina, and looked forward to the joint efforts of China and Argentina to complete the follow-up work of the project. The signing of the project is another breakthrough for PowerChina to implement its green energy goals.

Power Construction, Shanghai Power Construction Consortium and the Argentine Ministry of Energy signed an EPC contract for the second phase of the Argentine National Production Natural Gas Pipeline Project at the Office of the Energy Secretariat of the Argentine Ministry of Economy in Buenos Aires, with a contract value of 1.905 billion US dollars, equivalent to RMB 13.621 billion.

The second phase of the Argentine National Production Natural Gas Pipeline Project is composed of several main main gas pipelines and several new compressor stations. developed areas. PowerChina will be responsible for the design of the entire project, the procurement of pipelines and a complete set of pipeline fittings, pipeline installation and construction, etc.

The project is the No. 1 project on the China-Argentina key cooperation list, and it is also the largest gas pipeline project in Argentina in recent years. It has been highly valued by the leaders of the two countries, groups and companies. After the completion of the project, it will realize Argentina's self-sufficiency in natural gas, reverse the situation of energy dependence on imports, and promote the development of the national petrochemical industry. The project can be followed by the construction of pipelines extended to Uruguay and Brazil for natural gas export, which is in line with the energy export strategy vigorously promoted by the Argentine government.
