据天然气加工新闻网6月2日报道，日前，巴拿马总统洛伦蒂诺·科尔蒂索(Laurentino Cortizo)宣布，在这个中美洲国家寻求增加清洁能源份额之际，将建造一座耗资10亿美元的天然气发电厂。
Cortizo称，这座名为Gatun的电厂将位于科隆港附近的Telfers岛，在巴拿马首都巴拿马城巴拿马运河的另一端，发电能力为670兆瓦。
政府消息人士告诉路透社，该工厂将在 2023 年末或 2024 年初开始运营。
据一份声明称，由私营公司 InterEnergy Group 和 AES Panama 以及政府组成的财团巴拿马能源天然气集团(Consortium Consorcio Group Energy Gas Panama)，将负责该工厂的建设、开发和运营。
Cortizo 补充道，政府不会提供资金。
根据 InterEnergy Group 的预测，Gatun 将创造 3,000 多个直接和数千个间接工作岗位。
