CEM expects new power station in 5 years

CEM expects its new power plant in Coloane to be up and running in five years time, Bernie Leong Wa Kun, chairman of the electricity utility’s executive committee, said yesterday.

Leong also said that the demolition of the former CEM power station on the peninsula was in progress, adding he expected the project to be competed in 18 months time when the company would hand the “clean” plot back to the government.
