Argan, Inc. (NYSE: AGX) (“Argan” or the “Company”)
announces today that its subsidiary, Atlantic Projects Company
(“APC”), received full notice to proceed on an engineering,
procurement and construction (“EPC”) services contract with GE
Vernova for the Shannonbridge Power Project (the “Shannonbridge
Project”) in County Offaly, Ireland.
The Shannonbridge Project, an initiative of EirGrid and the
Electricity Supply Board of Ireland (ESB), aims to enhance the
region’s power infrastructure and to ensure a reliable electricity
supply during critical situations and emergencies. The power plant
will feature eight GE LM2500XPRESS units, built with proven LM2500
aeroderivative gas turbine technology. APC and its U.S.-based
sister company, Gemma Power Systems (“Gemma”), will work on the
project with GE Vernova and will oversee the entire project
lifecycle, including design, procurement, construction and
commissioning. With their combined expertise in engineering and
construction, the APC/Gemma team will work collaboratively with all
interested parties to achieve the targeted completion date of early
2024. Work commenced earlier this year under limited notices to
proceed.
“We understand the importance to Ireland of having a robust and
reliable national power supply, especially during times of high
demand,” said Billy Nolan, Managing Director of APC. “With a
50-year global pedigree in providing power generation solutions,
our experienced team is dedicated to executing this project with
the utmost professionalism while adhering to safety and quality
standards. The Shannonbridge Project is expected to serve as a
vital resource to ensuring the security of the electricity supply
when the country needs it.”
“We are honored to participate in the Shannonbridge Project with
APC and GE Vernova,” added Charles Collins, Chief Executive Officer
at Gemma. “This project aligns perfectly with our mission to
provide cutting-edge solutions that address the world’s most
pressing power challenges. We are committed to delivering valuable
components of a resilient and sustainable power infrastructure that
will benefit the local community and support Ireland’s energy
goals.”
APC and Gemma are committed to cooperating with local
stakeholders, including government agencies, regulatory bodies, and
the community throughout the project. By engaging with local
suppliers and contractors, both companies aim to maximize regional
employment opportunities and make other positive contributions to
the local economy.
Argan and its subsidiaries are proud to contribute to Ireland’s
sustainable energy future and look forward to a successful
partnership with all stakeholders involved.
