Background
The Djelfa power station is being built by Duro Felguera, S.A. (DF). When completed, the Djelfa power station will be the largest project DF has completed.[13] DF signed the contract to build the plant in December of 2013. Initially, it had a 40-month deadline to complete the plant, meaning its completion was expected in 2017.[14] However, it appears completion was delayed. A 2018 press release stated that project was "scheduled for completion in 2018"[15] and DF lists the Execution Period as "2013-2019."[16]
SPE's latest development plan slated commissioning for 2019-2021, and media announcements stated 2021[17]. However, as of 2021 the contractor Duro Felguera has allegedly not paid multiple contractors, and not commissioned the site despite multiple government warnings.[18]
