Hungary: MVM could build new gas-fired power plants

Hungarian  MVM Group launched a public tender for the construction of combined cycle gas turbine power plants at the Tiszaujvaros and Visonta sites. This could mean the addition of a new 1,600 MW of gas-fired capacity to the country’s energy mix.

The gas-fired units are planned as brownfield investments, to be built at the sites of defunct oil-fired power plants in Tiszaujvaros and soon-to-be-closed Matra coalfired power plants. New gas-fired capacities will be beneficial for balancing the weather-dependent production of solar power plants, which experienced huge expansion in recent years. In addition to the new NPP Paks units and solar capacity, gas-fired units with controllable output are needed to reduce energy dependency and the share of imported electricity.

The plans envisage the construction of two units of up to 500 MW each at the Tiszaujvaros site of former MVM’s Tisza power plant. The site of the Matra power plant in Visonta will host one unit with a maximum capacity of 650 MW. The tender has been met with huge interest among international companies. According to tender documentation, a maximum of six bidders can apply for each of the two sites.
