Tessenderlo Group, Brussels, reported on Oct. 15 that it has been informed of the decision by the Flemish Minister of Justice and Enforcement, Environment, Energy, and Tourism not to grant a permit for the construction of a second gas-fired power station of 900 MW in Tessenderlo (Belgium).
If successful, the new power plant, which involves the investment of €500 million, would have been operational by Nov. 1, 2025 (GM Sept. 3, p. 29). The company said it would carefully review this decision before deciding on any further steps.
