EthosEnergy has secured a multi-year contract to deliver operations and maintenance (O&M) services for the Manzanillo Power Land project, a 420MW combined cycle facility in the Dominican Republic.
The project, which is currently under construction in Pepillo Salcedo, Montecristi province, is anticipated to commence operations in the second half of 2025.
EthosEnergy vice-president O&M business development Luis Vintimilla stated: “We are excited to partner with Energia 2000 as they look to bring reliable, secure energy to the Dominican Republic.
“Our goals are to maximise plant availability, optimise performance and ensure safe long-term operation of the plant.”
The Manzanillo Power Land project, the largest in a border province of the Dominican Republic, will utilise a Siemens Energy SGT6-8000H gas turbine and an SST6-3000 steam turbine.
The facility will enhance energy efficiency and provide clean, reliable and cost-effective electricity.
Located within the Manzanillo Port development, the power plant is strategically positioned next to a natural gas terminal, reception pier and breakwater.
Energia 2000 chairman Jaime Santana Bonetti stated: “We chose EthosEnergy for the care, custody and control of the Manzanillo project because of their proven experience and proactive and flexible approach to risk management. Once operational, this new facility will reset the bar for state-of-the-art energy efficiency in Latin America and the Caribbean.”
EthosEnergy recently secured another O&M contract for the Maisan combined cycle power plant near Basra, Iraq.
This three-year contract marks EthosEnergy’s first comprehensive third-party care, custody and control agreement in the Middle East. The Maisan Power Company, part of the Raban Al Safina (RAS) Group, operates the 850MW facility.
In 2024, EthosEnergy and the RAS Group entered a joint venture in Iraq, which includes the construction of a gas turbine component repair facility near Baghdad.
“EthosEnergy to provide O&M for Manzanillo Power Land project” was originally created and published by Power Technology, a GlobalData owned brand.
