PGE mulls building three gas-powered blocks

WSE-listed power giant PGE is considering building three, gas-fired power blocks with combined 1,500 MW capacity. Two of them will be built in the Dolna Odra power plant and will have 500 MW capacity each. The third such block could be built in one of existing PGE locations. The results of a feasibility study should be available in mid-2018. In September 2017, the investment committee of PGE issued a recommendation in which it singled out gas as the best option for the new power unit at Dolna Odra power plant, going away from the previous recommendation of coal. The company initially planned to build one 500 MW gas-powered block there.
