LLC, a firm engaged in combustion turbine component engineering, design and manufacturing.Calpine said it had agreed to pay $43 million for Power Systems, $10.7 million in Calpine stock and $32.2 million in cash which will be paid in five equal installments beginning January 2002. The cash payments may be modified if Power Systems doesn't perform as expected.Tom Mason, Calpine's executive vice president for operations, said the acquisition will "significantly strengthen" his company's ability to operate and maintain its fleet of combustion turbines.
