Description: WorleyParsons undertook, on behalf of the CEB, a pre-feasibility study to assess the Potential of Using Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) for Electricity Generation in Mauritius. The CEB commissioned this study with a view to reduce the dependency on conventional imported energy carriers, to promote the use of cleaner energy sources and to diversify the energy mix of the country.
The following sources of potential LNG demand were considered in the study:
- Conversion of the existing CEB thermal stations;
- A new 100MW Natural Gas Fired Power Plant;
- Transport sector conversion to use natural gas (NG);
- Additional sources from commercial and industrial sectors.
