Project Description
ADC was approached by an international developer to assist in a solution to effectively and efficiently utilise 3 million gigajoules of Mozambican Royalty Gas.
ADC conducted a Technology Due Diligence and selected 10 x GE Jenbacher 24 cylinder engines with a generation capacity of 40MW. ADC developed the project, at risk, over a period of 4 years to reach financial close in 2013. Construction of this gas facility commenced in June 2014 with ADC in the role of Owner’s Project Manager. The facility reached Deemed Commercial operation in December 2015.
ADC is appointed as the Kuvaninga facility’s Operations and Maintenance contractor for a period of 14 years.

The Kelvin power station is situated in Johannesburg and was constructed in 1957, making it one of the oldest coal fired power stations in South Africa. The original capacity of this facility was 600MW but with the shutdown of a portion of the plant in 2012, it currently has a capacity of approximately 300MW.
ADC was approached by an international Company to conduct an evaluation on a 1040 MW Combined Cycle Gas Turbine station (CCGT), in the Middle East. As part of this evaluation process, ADC had to compile a comprehensive Due Diligence report and investment model of the power station’s business, that would comply with the requirements of international financing.
ADC and an international investor teamed up to conduct a due diligence to acquire a stake in a Heavy Fuel Oil facility in Mombasa, Kenya. The facility had been in operation for 11 years and had a remaining net plant capacity of 75 MW.
