INDEPENDENT provider of multi-technical services, SPIE has been awarded a contract by DF Energy to install site-wide infrastructure lighting and small power at Carrington Power’s new gas power station.
As part of its work, SPIE will fix approximately 2,500 light fittings and associated cables; the lighting comprises a mix of normal and ‘hazardous area’ fixtures.
The £600m power station is expected to have an operational life of more than 25 years. Built on the site of the demolished Carrington coal-fired power station, the new plant will be combined-cycle gas-fired. Its output will be enough to power roughly one million homes; three times the amount generated by the former plant.
