CTCI Succeeds in Obtaining Taiwan’s Largest Coal Bunker Contract with Taichung Power Plant No. 1-10 Coal Handling System Improvement Project

CTCI, Taiwan's largest EPC lump sum contractor has recently been awarded Taichung Power Plant No. 1-10 Coal Handling System Improvement Project from Taipower followed its No. 1-4 AQCS Retroﬁt contract acquired in 2015 with solid track records in executing EPC projects worldwide. The contract value is NT$12.9 billion and 88 million, and is scheduled to be completed in June 2022. With the completion of this project, the ambient air quality standards are expected to be effectively improved, providing better living environment to residents of central Taiwan.

The Taichung power plant ranks the second in coal-fired power plants globally, and is Taiwan’s largest power plant, which is a major source of power supply for households and industrial use. The project scope includes the construction of 550,000 tons & 600,000 tons closed type A-Frame coal shed at the northeastern side of the current storage bunker and automated convey system to eliminate the coal dust emission of the existing open coal yard and the problem of running out of dry coal stock in raining days. Moreover, this would resolve the current bottleneck of coal storage and mixing coal of Taichung Power Plant, hence meeting the future operation needs.

CTCI’s superior engineering quality has won it the recognition of project owners time and again, help fostering local economic development. Securing this new contract from Taipower, CTCI will actively contribute its share of protecting the environment and fostering economic development with its green engineering solutions and thus hold firm to its brand spirit of being “the most reliable global engineering services provider”.
