The new project aims to convert the existing simple cycle to a combined cycle plant, which reduces the gas turbines&rsquo; exhaust gas temperature.<\/p>\n<p>The power plant utilizes both natural gas and solar; this &ldquo;dual-fuel&rdquo; operability provides security of electricity provision in the event that gas supplies are unavailable for any reason. In addition, a small emergency generator operating on solar oil will also be provided on-site to operate key equipment within the power plant in the event of power supply failure.<\/p>\n<p>The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) report is prepared by ECG, based on many baseline studies undertaken by independent national and international consultants and on the information provided by EEHC, EDEPC and their sub-contractors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4990,"template":"","activity":[627],"country":[71],"scope":[808],"sector":[252,253],"yoast_head":"\n<title>Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) for Upgrading West Damietta Power Plant - ECG website<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ecgsa.com\/project\/environmental-and-social-impact-assessment-esia-for-upgrading-west-damietta-power-plant\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) for Upgrading West Damietta Power Plant - ECG website\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"West Damietta site is located on the southern shoreline of the Mediterranean Sea, about 200 km from north Cairo along the railway which connects east Damietta to west of the site parallel to the International Coastal Highway.
