Blue Dolphin – a new port for Mejillones Power Station in Chile

摘要

Engie Energia Chile S.A. (ENGIE), a subsidiary of Engie South America, recently added 375?MW to the interconnected Chilean power grid. The additional generated power was from a newly constructed coal-fired power unit known as IEM1, or “Red Dragon”, located in Mejillones, Chile. In addition to the power unit, new port and offshore infrastructure (Blue Dolphin project) was required. The marine infrastructure comprised a coal import jetty which formed the link between the power unit and the resources required to generate the 375?MW.
