LCG, December 4, 2019--The last operating coal-fired power plant in New York is moving toward closure shortly.

The two other projects are a 600 megawatt plant at Shuaiba and a 400 megawatt facility at Subiya. The cost of those two is expected to be about $420 million.The big Al-Zour North project is expected to begin commercial operations in the second half of 2006, while the two smaller plants are penciled in for mid-2003.According to the Middle East Economic Digest, the next stage in the projects will be the preparation of tender documents for engineering, procurement and construction contracts. For Al-Zour North, the government has looked at a build-operate model, the publication said.The new plants will be fueled by natural gas, provided by the proposed Qatar-Kuwait pipeline.
