No further details of the offer received by the Government were accessible at a time when the aforementioned thermoelectric power plant becomes a major asset to the national electricity sector.

Finished the power plant that according to the International Analysis agency EIA, will have the capacity to supply energy to more than 1.5 million households (2.000 households per megawatts) will be enough to cope with the demand of the population and a cheaper cost for the government and end user.
