Background
The Manzanillo Energy power station, together with the Manzanillo Gas & Power and Manzanillo Power Land power stations, is one of three large gas-fired power plants under development near Manzanillo, in the northwestern corner of the Dominican Republic.[11] Dominican president Luis Abinader attended a groundbreaking ceremony for the plant in December 2022.[11][12] The project is scheduled for completion in 2026.[11]
As of February 2021, the Dominican government was preparing a tender for rights to develop an 800 MW power station in the Manzanillo region.[13][14] By July 2021 the government had received twelve bids for the project[15][16], with technical and economic offers expected in October 2021.[16] Initial plans called for the power plant to be developed in conjunction with a LNG import terminal.[17]
In May 2022, the Dominican government announced that it had selected a pair of winning bids, resulting in the power plant being split into two separate projects.[18] The first project, to be developed by a consortium led by Haina Investment Corp, was to include a 420 MW combined cycle power station and the associated Manzanillo (Dominican Republic) LNG terminal.[19] The second project, to be developed by a consortium led by Manzanillo Energy, was to include a 392 MW combined cycle power station, to be supplied by the same LNG terminal.[19] According to the terms of the tender, both projects were to be completed within a 42-month time frame.[19]
In a July 2024 interview, project developer Lindsayca's executive VP confirmed that construction of the project was 82% complete and estimated that the plant would be ready to generate electricity by March 2025.[20]
