Technopromexport starts tender for Taman plant turbines

MOSCOW, Jul 2 (PRIME) -- Technopromexport, affiliate of Russian industrial holding Rostec, has announced a tender for gas turbines with a capacity of 148 megawatts (MW) or higher and steam turbines of 75.4 MW or higher for a plant on the Taman Peninsula on Monday.

The initial price of the contract stands at 9.17 billion rubles. Bids are accepted until August 13 and a winner will be announced on August 30.

Germany’s Siemens said in July 2017 that all the four turbines meant to be used on a Russian power plant on the Taman Peninsula were illegally shipped to Crimea, forcing it to cancel its licensing agreements to sell power equipment to Russian firms and suspend the current agreements with state-run companies.
