Panama power plants receive new dispatch corridor
Panama’s state power transmission company Etesa put into operation the Sabanitas-Panamá III project.
The infrastructure comprises a 46km, 230kV, 1,000MVA line and the Sabanitas and Panamá III gas insulated substations.
The circuit will increase dispatch capacity from natural gas-fired power plants in Colón province, providing an alternative corridor for electricity transport to Panamá province.
Sabanitas-Panamá III is the largest of the obligatory short-term projects in Etesa’s 2020-34 expansion plan for the national grid (PESIN).
Meanwhile, procurement information shows that over a dozen groups attended information meetings for Etesa’s calls to build the Progreso II substation and expand the San Bartolo substation.
The potential bidders include Celmec, Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios, Cox Energy Panamá, CYMI do Brasil, Grupo Ortiz, Hitachi Energy, and PowerChina.
