The choice of Sepco III has been made in view of the economic competitiveness of its supply and its technical and environmental technology it will implement for the construction of the plant, added the statement. The plant will be built in the city of Jerada near the Algerian border, a former coal mines hub closed in 2001, and will start operating by the end of 2016. The statement added that this new plant is part of the master plan to cope with the rapid growth in electricity demand in the country which is around 10%annually.
