Open Cycle Gas Turbine Power Generation Plant

Trojan General Contracting, in joint venture with South Korea’s Samsung C&T, has been awarded the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract for the development of a state-of-the-art Open Cycle Gas Turbine (OCGT) Power Generation Plant in the Al-Dhafra region of Abu Dhabi.

The Al-Dhafra OCGT project will have a generation capacity of 1,000 megawatts (MW), supporting the growing energy demands of the UAE. The project is being fully owned by Abu Dhabi National Energy Company (Taqa), which will also oversee its operation and maintenance.

The project aligns with the UAE government’s forward-looking Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategy, with EWEC partnering with both Taqa and Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar) on initiatives to integrate advanced energy technologies.
