SNC-LAVALIN ECS AWARDED A CONTRACT IN TAIWAN
SNC-Lavalin Energy Control Systems Inc. (ECS) and Taiwan-based TECO Electric and Machinery Co. Ltd. recently signed a CAN $15.4 million contract with the Taiwan Power Company (TPC) to supply, install and commission a new Feeder Dispatch Control System (FDCS) at its Taipei South District Office.
“This new turnkey mandate continues to confirm SNC-Lavalin ECS’s position as one of the world’s foremost suppliers of energy control systems,” said Klaus Triendl, President, SNC-Lavalin International Inc. “It will also provide us with another excellent opportunity to showcase our technical expertise in Asia.”
TPC is a government-owned utility and the only power company in Taiwan, supplying power to over 20 million people. The new system will allow TPC to remotely control and supervise its power distribution network in the heavily industrialized southern section of Taipei.
“This is the second contract TPC has awarded SNC-Lavalin ECS, and demonstrates the high level of satisfaction the state utility has in our products and services,” said Alain Poplemon, Senior Vice-President and General Manager, SNC-Lavalin ECS. “The new FDCS will improve the quality and reliability of service in southern Taipei, due primarily to the fault detection, isolation and system restoration function developed by SNC-Lavalin ECS.”
Work began on January 15, 2004, and is scheduled to be completed by December 2005.
SNC-Lavalin (TSX: SNC) is one of the leading groups of engineering and construction companies in the world, a global leader in the ownership and management of infrastructure, and a key player in facilities and operations management. The SNC-Lavalin companies have offices across Canada and in 30 other countries around the world and are currently working in some 100 countries.
