BCPG allots B3.9bn for expansion in US

Mr Niwat says investing in both natural gas power plants aligns with BCPG's growth strategy.

BCPG Plc, the clean power generation arm of energy conglomerate Bangchak Corporation Plc, is expanding its business in the US by investing 3.9 billion baht in two gas-fired power plants in Ohio.

The two power plants -- the 700-megawatt Carroll County Energy and 1,182-MW South Field Energy -- employ combined cycle gas turbine technology, which could serve energy needs for US grid operator PJM around the clock, while the technology itself is also environmentally friendly, said Niwat Adirek, president and chief executive of BCPG.
