Everllence has secured a contract from China National Electric Engineering Co. Ltd. (CNEEC) to supply four 18V51/60DF dual-fuel engines for a new power plant in Nouakchott, Mauritania. The plant will deliver 74 MW of capacity to help close the country’s electricity gap.
Each engine will generate 18.5 MW. Early production planning and close collaboration with CNEEC and the end user enabled fast delivery, key for meeting Mauritania’s urgent energy needs. Commissioning is scheduled for late 2026.
The plant will be operated by SOMELEC, Mauritania’s national utility. SOMELEC plans to build more facilities to meet the nation’s growing power demand.
“Everllence is helping stabilize Mauritania’s power supply with this project,” said Ghassan Saab, Head of Power, Region MEA at Everllence. “We have delivered power plants in more than 30 African countries, adding over 2.5 GW of capacity to the continent.”
Martin Chmiela, Head of Power, Asia Pacific, added: “Our dual-fuel engines give maximum flexibility. They can switch between fuels without losing performance, guaranteeing reliable power generation.”
