Switzerland, Zurich: ABB has won an order from Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) worth $ 78 million.

ABB will supply power transformers for two new combined-cycle power plants that will boost transmission capacity around Riyadh, and surrounding areas of the Central Region.

The delivery will include generator step-up (GSU) transformers, power transformers and station service transformers for SEC’s combined-cycle power plants, reports Utilities-Me.

“These transformers will enable more electricity to reach consumers and meet growing industrial and household demand in the region.” said Bernhard Jucker, head of ABB’s Power Products division.

According to the plans to boost power-generation, Saudi Arabia has the ambition to more than double the existing capacity.
