The facility is designed to enhance energy efficiency and provide clean, reliable and cost-effective electricity
Located within the Manzanillo Port development near a natural gas terminal, the project is the largest energy initiative in a Dominican border province. It features a Siemens Energy SGT6-8000H gas turbine and an SST6-3000 steam turbine, designed to deliver efficient, reliable, and cost-effective electricity.
Luis Vintimilla, EthosEnergy’s vice-president of O&M business development, said: “We are excited to partner with Energia 2000 as they look to bring reliable, secure energy to the Dominican Republic. Our goals are to maximise plant availability, optimise performance and ensure safe long-term operation of the plant.”
Jaime Santana Bonetti, chairman of Energia 2000, stated: “We chose EthosEnergy for the care, custody and control of the Manzanillo project because of their proven experience and proactive and flexible approach to risk management. Once operational, this new facility will reset the bar for state-of-the-art energy efficiency in Latin America and the Caribbean.”
EthosEnergy also secured a three-year O&M contract for the 850MW Maisan combined cycle power plant near Basra, Iraq, its first full third-party O&M agreement in the Middle East, operated by Maisan Power Company under the Raban Al Safina Group. In 2024, EthosEnergy and the RAS Group launched a joint venture for a gas turbine repair facility near Baghdad.
