OUR PORTFOLIO
The Cogentrix portfolio of power generating facilities
consists of a balanced mix of highly efficient gas-fired combined-cycle, rapid-start peaking,
solar thermal, hydro and lower energy
cost coal-fired facilities. Most of the plants operate under long-term power
purchase agreements or tolling arrangements with investment grade
utility customers, providing a stable, well-diversified base of operations.
An important milestone for Cogentrix was the February 2009 acquisition
of Sunray Energy, LLC facility. Sunray is comprised of the SEGS I
and SEGS II solar trough, thermal generating facilities located in Daggett,
California. As a result of the acquisition, Cogentrix
is now one of only a few owners of commercial
scale solar thermal plants in the United States.
In February 2010, Cogentrix finalized its acquisition of Eti Elektrik (“Eti”), a joint stock company organized under the law of Turkey, completing an effort originally begun in October 2008. Eti, headquartered in Istanbul, owns a portfolio of in-construction, licensed, and license-pending Turkish power generating assets. Today the portfolio includes approximately 2,300 MW of hydro, wind, and thermal projects, 480 MW of which are high value hydroelectric plants located throughout Turkey. |
