Vietnam: VICEM Ha Tien Cement has signed an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract for a waste heat recovery power generation project at its Kien Luong cement plant. The agreement is valued at US$7.5m, and was concluded with a consortium of Sinoma International Engineering, Viet Industrial Construction and Installation, and Viet Tuan Trading Construction Architecture.
The consortium will design, supply, construct and install the system, which will utilise residual heat from the clinker line to generate electricity. The project is set for completion within 16 months, and will meet a ‘considerable portion’ of the plant’s internal power needs, according to S&P Global.
