Background

Termocentro is a combined cycle power station comprising two 100 MW gas turbines and one 100 MW steam turbine. In December 2020, gas turbine 2 temporarily ceased commercial operations, reducing the plant's capacity indefinitely.[11]

At the end of 2022, Isagen sold Termocentro to Rattan Holding.[12]
