As we announced a few months ago, Bikar undertook the design, manufacture and supply of a group of rubber expansion joints for Al Ghubrah desalination plant project – Oman.
We would like to show in the following pictures some of the last expansion joints manufactured and ready to be sent once they will be correctly packed.
Bikar Juntas y Compensadores signed an agreement with the main engineering companies of the CSP project in order to manufacture and provide Bikar BL-FLEX type expansion joints.
The Bokpoort thermo solar plant (50MW) is located close to Upington city, in South African´s Northern Cape Province.
The thermo solar plant design and construction was carried out by a consortium of EPC contractors consortium, some of them from Spain as SENER, ACCIONA or TSK
The operation and maintenance will be undertaken by a consortium led by NOMAC, ACWA Power and Invest In Africa Energy.
The power plant disposes of a thermal storage. This makes CSP the only renewable technology at
commercial scale to cover the country´s daily peak demand. Thus, it will help to prevent power black outs.
South Africa is a country which relies heavily on coal to meet its energy needs, so, this kind of project is a very interesting and sustainable alternative for their interests.
Bikar through the Mojave Solar thermal project (California, has introduce itself into the US Desalination market. This project is being managed mostly by Abengoa, one of the most important engineering companies from Spain.
The Mojave Solar Project is a solar thermal power facility under construction in the Mojave Desert (California). The 250 MW concentrating solar power (CSP)plant will cost an estimated $1.6 billion in total and should be completed in 2014. The developer, Abengoa, has successfully secured a $1.2 billion loan guarantee from the US government for the project.
Once operational the plant will generate 617,000 MWh of power annually, enough power for more than 88,000 households and will prevent the emission of over 430 kilotons of CO2 a year.
Pacific Gas & Electric has agreed to a 25-year power purchase agreement.
Thus, Bikar Juntas and Compensators SL, formalizes a new manufacturing and supply agreement of expansion joints for a major energy project, on which will be placed rubber pieces with different features: single or double wave, nominal diameters from 300-1200 mm. among others.
