First Ignition Achieved at SWT's Simandou Mine 24 MW Power Plant Project in Guinea
Another important milestone for our power projects in Africa.
The Simandou EPC3 Mine 24 MW Power Plant Project in Guinea has successfully achieved its first ignition, with the first medium-speed diesel generator set successfully started.
The power plant is designed with:
• 24 MW design capacity
• 6 × CMP-MAN 9L32/40 medium-speed generator sets
• 4,347 kW rated power per unit
• 10.5 kV generator output voltage
The project integrates the generator sets with fuel, lubricating oil, cooling, intake and exhaust, electrical control, and black-start systems to provide reliable power for mining operations.
Following equipment manufacturing, system integration, international transportation and on-site installation, the successful first ignition marks the project's entry into the next stage of commissioning, grid-connected system integration and trial operation.
From equipment supply to complete power plant solutions, SWT continues to strengthen its capabilities in large-scale medium-speed power projects for mining, industrial, grid, and other critical power applications worldwide.
Reliable power. Integrated engineering. Global project ex*****on.
