Pöyry has been awarded the owner’s engineer services assignment for the Ashuganj 400 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant (East) project in Brahmanbaria District, Bangladesh, replacing an old 150 MW steam turbine plant.
Pöyry’s scope includes supervision of demolition, disposal and site preparation supervision, construction supervision, and testing and commissioning supervision, over 36 months starting from Q4/2017.
