Energy Sector Development Office (GDSE) Director Hoi Chi Leong said yesterday that the government aims for another natural gas power plant in local power utility CEM’s power station at Ka Ho in Coloane to come into operation in 2021.
Hoi made the remarks while speaking to reporters on the sidelines of this year’s Energy Saving Week launching ceremony in Praça do Tap Seac. The annual event organised by the office aims to raise residents’ energy-saving awareness by holding a raft of activities throughout the week.
Speaking during yesterday’s launching ceremony, Hoi said that as the former CEM power station in Areia Preta district has been demolished, all the locally-produced electricity now comes from the power utility’s power station in Ka Ho.
