Constraints, risk & compliance
Operational constraints
Generation depends on continuous natural-gas availability, with gas oil serving as the secondary fuel. The mixed fleet of Mitsubishi, V94.2 and Siemens units requires maintenance capability across multiple equipment platforms.
Key risks and compliance considerations
Fuel-supply continuity and maintenance performance are material to availability. The asset’s phased configuration, with gas units commissioned from 1994 to 2003 and steam units commissioned in 2006–2007, makes lifecycle maintenance and replacement planning commercially significant.
