Siemens Energy is expediting its work to upgrade Baiji Unit-2’s gas-to-power capacity.

CSCES, a leading engineering and construction company, has partnered with Siemens Energy to fast-track the upgrade of Baiji Unit-2, a gas-fired power plant in Iraq. The project aims to increase the plant’s power generation capacity and efficiency. Siemens Energy will provide the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services for the upgrade, while CSCES will be responsible for the civil works and site management. The upgrade will involve the installation of new gas turbines, generators, and other equipment to increase the plant’s power output by 120 MW. The project is expected to be completed within 24 months, with the first phase scheduled to be finished within 12 months. The upgrade will also improve the plant’s efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and operating costs. The project is a significant milestone in the development of Iraq’s power sector, and it will help to address the country’s growing energy demands.
