Prime Minister Mark Phillips has stated that government’s search for an operator/manager for the Wales Gas-to-Energy (GtE) power plant and separately seeking investors for a mirror project is evidence of strategic planning for the country’s energy needs which it sees increasing rapidly over the coming years.

In preparation for the 300 megawatt (MW)Wales GtE plant’s scheduled completion in March, government has advertised for a company that will operate and maintain it, even as it seeks investors for a mirror project that will generate 250MW more. The O&M [operations and maintenance programme], however, does not include the natural gas liquid (NGL) fractionation plant that will extract liquids “C3,C4, C5+” as this “will be addressed separately.”
