SOMERTON POWER STATION OPENED

摘要

Victorian Premier Steve Bracks, along with AGL managing director Greg Martin and Energy Industries Minister Theo Theophanous, recently opened The Australian Gas Light Company's (AGL) 125 million dollars, ISO megawatt peaking power station at Somerton, in Melbourne's northern suburbs. The facility, comprising four 37.5MW gas-fired generating units, will play an important role in ensuring that additional capacity is available to the state during periods of high electricity demand. AGL managing director Greg Martin said, "Somerton Power Station is an integral part of the company's Victorian energy business, with AGL now being one of the largest retailers of gas and electricity in the state."
