Capital expenditure RWE npower

RWE npower spent €611 million on investments, up from €587 million in the previous year. Capital expenditure was almost exclusively on property, plant and equipment. The biggest project was the construction of the 1,650-MW Glossary combined-cycle gas-fired power plant in Staythorpe which began in 2007. The facility is scheduled for commissioning in 2009/2010. In addition, we carried out preparatory work for the planned gas-fired power station in Pembroke. Further funds were spent on retrofitting the Aberthaw hard coal-fired power plant with a flue gas desulphurization unit.
