Background

Located in the Ravenna petrochemical facility, this power station supplies combined heat-and-power to the Ravenna chemical facility.[7] There are currently two gas-fired combined cycle systems operating at the facility, providing 591 MW of power.

Eni has also proposed to add an extension to the power plant of two gas-fired turbines of 65 MW each, to be commissioned over the next few years.[8] Re-common notes that the new units will feature carbon-capture-and-storage technology.[9]
