IHI Power Services to supply asset management services to CE+P for 15 years

In California, IHI Power Services Corp. (IPSC) has deepened its partnership with California Ethanol + Power (CE+P) via a 15-year asset management deal to oversee its forthcoming Sugar Valley Energy campus outside of Brawley, Calif.

The project is expected to produce approximately 70 million gallons of extremely low-carbon, fuel-grade Essential Ethanol™ from locally grown sugarcane; up to 49 MW of baseload electricity produced from biomass; and 737 Mcf of pipeline quality biomethane.

IPSC was originally tapped to support a 15-year operation and maintenance (O&M) contract for the 160-acre ethanol biorefinery, bioelectric generation plant and wastewater treatment facility project back in March of this year. Now, due to its impressive portfolio, proven track record of success and full range of O&M services, CE+P made the strategic decision to add asset management services to IPSC’s project scope.
