The project, which includes the engineering, procurement, and construction of the 980 megawatt plant, was included in CB&I's backlog in the second quarter of 2015. The St. Charles Power Station, which features advanced class turbines for their efficiency and ability to meet stricter ambient emission regulations, will be one of the cleanest and most efficient fossil units in Entergy Louisiana's fleet.
"CB&I has a long history with Entergy, most recently working together to successfully complete the Ninemile Unit 6, combined-cycle gas turbine unit in Westwego, Louisiana," said Philip K. Asherman, CB&I's President and Chief Executive Officer. "CB&I looks forward to helping Entergy Louisiana meet the region's growing energy demand with new, clean, affordable and reliable power generation."
