As part of its continuous endeavor to improve the quality of the electrical sector and develop its capabilities, the Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa) has decided to build two new stations.

Kahramaa, through an official press statement, said it has awarded a project to build both Al-Luqata and Gharfat Al-Rayyan stations with a voltage of 11/132 kV.  A local company has been chosen for the project implementation with an estimated amount of QR 155 mn.

This project comes within the framework of the Corporation's continuous efforts to develop electrical transmission networks in proportion to the growth in demand.

"This is in order to meet the future electrical needs of the state and to ensure the security and continuity of services through electrical transmission and distribution networks in line with the stations' operational frameworks," the press statement noted.

The importance of these two stations also lies in enhancing the capacity of the electrical network in Al-Luqata and Gharafa Al-Rayyan areas. The new stations willensure the improvement of the quality of electrical services in these areas, which in turn contributes to serving and supporting all vital future projects in the country.
